Personal profile
Research
I have a MSc in nutrition from Stockholm University (2003), a PhD in public health and nutritional epidemiology from Lund University (2009), and is associate professor (docent) in nutritional epidemiology. I am group leader and our current research interest includes the interaction between genetic and dietary factors for obesity, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease. My main focus is to clarify the importance of carbohydrate quality, especially sugar, on human health. I have funding from the Swedish Research Council, Heart and Lung Foundation, Crafoord foundation, Påhlsson foundation and ALF. We are also involved in international collaborations on gene-environment interaction analyzes.
