Joined the Cancer registry of Norway in February 2019 as a PhD-candidate in the field of occupational cancer epidemiology. My PhD-project is part of the bigger project ”Exposure related risks of cancer in Norwegian offshore petroleum workers”. Main supervisor is Tom K. Grimsrud.
With a prospective stratified case-cohort design I will study the occurrence and risk of urinary tract cancers among the male offshore workers. Conduct causal analysis of exposure and outcome to hydrocarbon exposure from oil mist/oil vapour, and several other agents.
Research interests are biostatistics, etiology, human- and ecological health.
