Aktuel forskning

I am associate professor in health services research with a focus on personcentred care, and research group leader at Department of Public Health & Center for Healthy Aging, Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at University of Copenhagen, Denmark.

The primary goal of the interdisciplinary research conducted in my research group is to enhance person-centred, diversity-sensitive healthcare provision in the context of population aging. This will contribute towards addressing societal challenges as well as opportunities caused by population aging that has implications for healthcare policy and practice.

In order to identify innovative approaches to ensuring healthcare services that are accessible, acceptable and of high quality for the increasing number of older adults, we work within an overall frame of interdisciplinary, multi-methods and co-created science. Key partners span across patient groups, municipalities, hospitals, patient associations, entrepreneurs and international organizations. We aim to enhance relevance, transferability and ultimately societal impact of research.

I have a background in Public Health Sciences, and a PhD in multi-methods Health Services Research from University of Copenhagen. In 2013, I was awarded an Honorary Research Fellowship at the Usher Institute of Population Health Sciences and Informatics, University of Edinburgh, Scotland, and I have been key in the initiation of the academic public health program in Qatar. I hold a number of grants, and I am involved in assessment of grant applications and academic work nationally and internationally, e.g. under the Research Committee of the Danish Heart Foundation, Horizon2020, the European Research Council (ERC) and the COST Programme. In addition to reviewer functions for various journals, I am Associate Editor for the BMC Health Services Research journal, and I serve as an advisor for amongst others Danish municipalities and WHO Europe.
