My postdoctoral research centers on epidemiological studies identifying environmental risk factors for mental illness. I also investigate the impact of antibiotics on cancer risk and prognosis.

My research focuses on large-scale epidemiological studies to understand disease etiology and prognosis. Currently, I investigate the link between environmental exposures, such as air pollution, and depression risk using the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study cohort and Swedish national register data. My recent PhD research (Umeå University) examined antibiotic use in relation to cancer outcomes, particularly colorectal cancer, peri-operative complications, and survival, using Swedish nationwide registers. My master’s thesis (Umeå University) explored inequalities in early childhood mortality in Myanmar using nationwide demographic survey data. I completed my medical studies in Myanmar and worked for seven years in the public health sector in the remote areas of northern Myanmar.
