About me
Associate professor (Docent, Senior researcher).
-
I am a principal investigator and group leader at the Division of Neurogeriatrics at Department of Neurobiology, Care Sciences and Society, Karolinska Institutet, Sweden.
Research
My background is in neuroendocrinology and my research focuses on the effects of sex hormone signaling on healthy brain aging. A major research topic of mine is how aberrant sex hormone signaling during endocrine sensitive life stages can modulate risk of depressive and neurodegenerative conditions. To this end, I am part of a network of specialists that employ multidisciplinary approaches, combining human epidemiological data with innovative experimental modeling and large-scale data integration to spearhead this research area.
