Research Areas
Along with my clinical career as a neurosurgeon, I am running a research group focusing on epidemiology and genetic research of neurosurgical diseases using the Danish nationwide registers and biobanks. The research group bridges the neurosurgical clinical environment with research departments at Statens Serum Institut. I have supervised younger researchers in their bachelor and master thesis projects, postgraduate researchers, and currently I am supervising two PhD students enrolled at the PhD School at University of Copenhagen.
