I am interested in epidemiology and its methods, with a focus on reproductive epidemiology.
Among other things I investigate the influence of prenatal or early life exposures on reproductive health, including pubertal development and fecundity.
I have a background in molecular biology. I worked for several years as a midwife before I graduated with an MSc. in Health Sciences. Following this degree, I did my PhD in Public Health at Aarhus University.
I am a researcher in epidemiology and public health, focusing on how maternal factors during pregnancy affect children's development and health.
Using the Danish National Birth Cohort, I study the impact of various exposures, such as diet, stress, and medicine, on pubertal timing and fecundity.
I apply advanced epidemiological methods to strengthen causal inference, contributing to understanding long-term health risks of prenatal and early life exposures.
I am a newly trained university educator, having recently completed the University Pedagogical Program at Health. I integrate modern teaching techniques to create a supportive learning environment and enhance student learning.
Passionate about teaching epidemiology and supervising students, I strive to make classes and supervision both engaging and inspiring.
I conduct epidemiological studies investigating causes of poor reproductive health and apply causal inference methods to limit the risk of bias.
Besides doing my own research, one of my favorite tasks is supervising PhD students, Master and bachelor students.
Together with colleagues, I teach a PhD course in causal inference in health science, and an elective course in advanced epidemiology at master’s level.
