Senior Scientist
Docent in Public Health and Epidemiology
Research Group: Life Cycle Research
I have a PhD in health sciences. Post-PhD, I have contributed to diverse research initiatives on work exposure, aging and health. My current research focuses on a deep longitudinal understanding of birth to late mid-life factors underlying the accumulation of chronic diseases. I believe that multimodal integration of early growth and development factors, childhood adversity, socioeconomic status, biological and clinical factors, lifestyle and behavioral factors can shed light on mechanisms behind aging process and onset of different chronic diseases.
