Biography: 

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Â鶹AV and Principal Investigator at the Douglas Research Centre. I am also an Associate Member of the Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics, and Occupational Health at Â鶹AV, and an adjunct senior researcher at the Danish Research Institute for Suicide Prevention. I received training in both clinical psychology and public health methodology and biostatistics with a focus on epidemiological research. As a clinical psychologist, I practice at the Depressive and Suicide Disorders Program of the Douglas Mental Health University Institute.

   

Areas of expertise: 

Psychiatric epidemiology. My research uses data from large population-based longitudinal studies and nation-wide registers to understand the early-life and developmental risk factors for suicidal behavior and mood disorders across the lifespan. This research is multidisciplinary, and builds on several approaches including psychiatric epidemiology, behavioral genetics, genetic epidemiology, and developmental psychopathology.
