I am employed in EPISTAT - the area of epidemiology and statistics - at the Department of Global Public Health and Primary Care (IGS), and my research within these fields revolves around analyses of parent-child trios or pairs with genetic and epigenetic data, and health registry data. I belong to TRACE, the center for translational epidemiology, which has members from EPISTAT and other departments and faculties at UiB.

Through my work with FairChoices, I am also part of the Bergen Centre for Ethics and Priority Setting in Health (BCEPS), a center of excellence for research under IGS. FairChoices is a tool used to scale up the healthcare system in countries where the population does not have access to necessary healthcare.

Educational leader at IGS.

Responsible for MEDSTA.

Considerable contributions to INTH321A.

Also contributing to other courses.
