Om mig

Jag disputerade i medicinsk vetenskap vid Karolinska Institutet (KI) 2013. Därefter var jag anställd som postdoktor vid University of California Los
Angeles (2014-2017). 2018 blev jag anställd som forskarassistent i psykiatrisk epidemiologi på Institutionen för klinisk neurovetenskap, KI,
och sedan 2020 är jag anknuten till forskning vid samma institution. Jag är
involverad i ett flertal projekt i forskargruppen, bl.a. projekt relaterade
till suicid och migration.
