Nadia Pristaj, M.D., has been conducting research as a PhD fellow in the Department of Global Public Health and Primary Care (IGS) at the University of Bergen since March 2024. She completed the Cand.med. degree programme and The Medical Student Research Programme at the University of Bergen between 2015 and 2022, followed by a medical internship at Haukeland University Hospital, Bergen, Norway.

Pristaj's current PhD project is centered around the ASCOS study (the ASkøy Campylobacter Outbreak Study), which investigates the water-borne Campylobacter jejuni infection that occurred in the general population on Askøy island, Norway, in 2019. The project aims to explore various health impacts including persistent symptoms following Campylobacteriosis in the general population.
