I am a clinician with obstetrics and gynecology as my specialty and a special interest in perinatal epidemiology. I am also a global maternal and perinatal health expert with experience from low- and middle-income countries at both field- and global level, working on surveillance systems for maternal and perinatal mortality and birth defects and monitoring and evaluation of programs.
The period of around conception, pregnancy and childbirth is an important time window to detect and prevent disease in the mother and the infant. Clinical epidemiological research is of special interest as the findings may contribute to preventive strategies for healthy pregnancies, mothers and infants. I am interested in understanding adverse outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), obesity and bariatric surgery and diabetes.
