Primære forskningsområder

Environmental Epidemiology (air pollution, noise, urbanicity, green-space)

- long-term expsoure to air pollution and breast cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, stroke, asthma (children and elderly), COPD, lung cancer, brain cancer

- short-term exposure to air pollution (time-series and case-crossover studies) and COPD, asthma, cardiovascular disease, mortality

- long-term exposure to road traffic noise and cardiovascular disease, diabetes, breast cancer

- long-term exposure to wind turbine noise and cardiovascular disease

Mammographic Breast Density and Breast cancer Risk Factors

- Determinants of mammographic density and breast cancer (smoking, physical activity, alcohol consumption, air pollution, traffic noise)

Occupational Epidemiology

- Health effects related to shift and night shift work (diabetes, mortality, cardiovascular disease, dementia)
