Jag jobbar som forskningsstödjande statistiker på Registercentrum Norr (https://rcnorr.se/), Region Västerbotten. Jag undervisar inom forskningsmetodik och statistik med fokus på registerforskning, hjälper till som konsult i medicinska forskningsprojekt, och forskar inom cancerepidemiologi och canceröverlevnad. Jag är redaktör för den vetenskapliga tidskriften BMC Cancer samt granskare för andra tidskrifter.

Jag är civilingenjör i teknisk fysik och disputerade 2014 inom cancerepidemiologi. Efter det gjorde jag en postdoc inom urinblåsecancer i samarbete med Uppsala universitet och King´s College London. Jag blev docent i epidemiologi under 2023.

Forskning

Min nuvarande forskning är fokuserad i två olika spår:

  • Studier av skillnader i risk, behandling, prognos, och överlevnad för urinblåsecancer inom projektet Bladder Cancer Data Base Sweden (BladderBaSe), ett nationellt registerbaserat forskningsprojekt.
  • Studier av övervikt, fetma och andra metabola faktorer och risk för cancer och dödlighet, inom olika nationella och internationella projekt, bland annat Obesity and Disease Development Sweden (ODDS, https://odds.blogg.lu.se/) och Metabola syndromet och cancerprojektet (Me-Can, http://me-can.se/)

Jag undervisar och är kursansvarig för en kurs i vetenskapsmetodik för ST-läkare och för doktorandkursen ”Introduktion till Registerforskning”, samt ströföreläsningar inom dessa områden för andra kurser.

Jag är bihandledare till två doktorander under forskarutbildning, och har varit bihandledare till två andra som disputerat.
