I am a senior researcher at the National Centre for Register-based Research at Aarhus University, where I investigate the causes and consequences of mental and neurological disorders, such as schizophrenia, ADHD, and epilepsy. In my work, I use register data (e.g., hospital and socio-economic databases) to gain insights into epidemiological research questions that benefit the population, particularly vulnerable groups in society. 

I hold a master's degree in statistics from 2009 and a PhD in medicine/public health from 2016. 

My research focuses on how mental and neurological disorders develop and affect people throughout their lives. I study how treatments work and how diseases are linked to other health challenges. I look at how both genetics and the environment play a role in disease development. The goal is to find ways to prevent diseases and help people with better treatments and improved quality of life.

I have a strong interest and experience in applied biostatistics, epidemiology, pharmacoepidemiology, register-based research, cohort and case-cohort designs.

I manage several key aspects of a study, from design to data analysis and communication.

I teach postgraduate courses in epidemiology and register-based research and supervise Ph.D. students. Additionally, I serve as an ad-hoc peer reviewer for scientific research articles, among other tasks.

I am committed to interdisciplinary and international research collaborations and have been part of three EU consortia: CRESTAR (on pharmacological treatment of schizophrenia), PRIME (on insulin and brain diseases), and TIMESPAN (on the management of cardiometabolic conditions in ADHD).
