Nathalie Støer works within pharmacoepidemiology with projects that use registry links to either explore associations between drug use and the risk of cancer, or investigate whether commonly used drugs, used in combination with standard cancer treatment, can improve the prognosis of cancer patients. Støer holds a PhD in biostatistics from the University of Oslo. Before she started at the Cancer Registry of Norway in 2016, she was a postdoctoral fellow at Karolinska Institutet.
Nathalie works within pharmacoepidemiology with projects that use registry links to either explore associations between drug use and the risk of cancer, or investigate whether commonly used drugs, used in combination with standard cancer treatment, can improve the prognosis of cancer patients. In addition, a newly launched project is investigating the use of newer cancer drugs in the treatment of breast cancer patients.
Nathalie is also interested in late effects in young cancer survivors, both somatic, psychological and socioeconomic. In addition, Nathalie is involved in the Cervical Screening Programme, which is the Norwegian screening programme for cervical cancer.
Previously, Nathalie has worked extensively with epidemiological sampling designs and how to utilize the information from these as efficiently as possible.
