Om mig

Min tidigare forskning har fokuserat på kognition i samband med normalt åldrande och neurodegenerativa sjukdomar såsom Alzheimers sjukdom (AD), med särskild tonvikt på ett multidimensionellt och integrativt angreppssätt där kognitiva bedömningar kombineras med biomarkörer och neuroimagingdata.

Sedan 2020 har jag utvidgat min forskning till försäkringsmedicinskt område, med särskilt fokus på neurologiska sjukdomar. Mitt arbete har främst inriktats på att identifiera riskfaktorer för, samt konsekvenserna av, sjukskrivning hos personer med multipel skleros (MS).
