Profile

I have a background in mathematics and hold a PhD in Health Sciences. I am committed to advancing research through innovative methodologies, including biostatistics, data science, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and the development of large-scale data platforms. My research focuses on the epidemiology of venous thromboembolism, maternal and child health, particularly among vulnerable newborns, and reproductive epidemiology.

Research

My primary research areas are within statistical & epidemiological methods, venous thromboembolism and cancer epidemiology, and maternal & child health epidemiology, with a special focus on vulnerable newborns. In my role as chair and coordinator of the GBS Vax-Ready European Consortium and as the main organiser of the GBS Symposium 2026, I aim to strengthen routine data collection across Europe and improve understanding of the consequences of the invasive Group B Streptococcus disease.

Collaborations

I collaborate closely with international research institutes, such as Stanford University, Boston University, Harvard University, the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, Amsterdam UMC, Vienna Medical University.

Job responsibilities

My primary responsibilities include conducting epidemiological research, primarily in collaboration with international research institutions, using advanced methodologies, including AI and machine learning. I also contribute to the establishment of large-scale data platforms based on Danish registry and survey data. I supervise MSc and PhD students and, as chair and coordinator of the GBS Vax-Ready European Consortium, lead collaborative efforts in Group B Streptococcus research.
