My research field is risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. I am particularly interested in improving risk stratification for people living with diabetes mellitus or hypertension. Current research projects include studies of the associations between home blood pressure variability and home blood pressure orthostatism, respectively, and the degree of cardiovascular organ damage, in the SCAPIS study.
