Om mig

I am an associate professor (docent) in epidemiology and a statistician. As part of Johan Askling's research group on chronic inflammatory disease epidemiology, my research focuses on safety and effectiveness of treatments for chronic inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis(RA), psoriatic arthritis(PsA) and spondyloarthritis(SpA). Morevoer, I have a deep interest in the role of environmental risk factor, and in particular diet, on risk and prognosis of rheumatoid arthritis.
