I am a DVM and a PhD in
Epidemiology. I am a senior reseracher at the Epidemiology and Risk
Modelling Group and the Division of Epidemiology and Microbial
Genomics.
My main research is the
epidemiology and control of foodborne
diseases. I have focused on developing
methods for attributing the burden of foodborne diseases to the
responsible sources, on surveillance of foodborne hazards, and on
microbial risk assessment. I have developed source attribution
methods for Denmark, and developed or assisted the development of
methods for other European and non-European countries. Currently, I
lead the Danish initiative to estimate the burden of
food-associated diseases in Denmark (FoodBurden). I am a
member of the WHO’s initiative to estimate the global burden
of foodborne diseases (Foodborne Disease Epidemiology Reference
Group (FERG)) and of the Global Foodborne Infections Network (GFN),
and have been involved in other international projects, namely the
EU’s network of excellence Med Vet Net, and EFSA working
groups.
