Docent; PhD i epidemiologi. Forskningsinriktning på klimatpåverkan på människors hälsa. Löpande studier om väderrelaterad dödlighet i norra Sverige under den demografiska transitionen, med användning av historiska befolknings- och väderdata. Forskar också om rollen av specifika vädertyper på dödlighet och sjuklighet i dagens och framtidens Sverige.

Ett annat fokus är folkhälsans påverkan av och anpassning till torka-relaterad migration i Östafrika, samt afrikanska herdefolks situation i en miljö i förändring. Övriga intressen är relaterade till samhällenas sårbarheter och anpassning till klimatförändringarna i låg- och medelinkomstländerna och mer allmänt till miljöhälsa och hållbarhet i antropocen.

Jag är även gästredaktör för den vetenskapliga tidskriften International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health med specialutgåvan “Health and Health Care in the Context of Environmental and Climate-Related Migration”.
