Om mig
- I am a PhD student in Ingrid Kockum's research group, mainly under Xia
Jiang's supervision. In my PhD project, I bend my efforts to genetic
epidemiology. The title of my research project is "Using larger-scale genetic
data and complied analytical strategy to understand the etiology and sex
disparity of multiple sclerosis". I use extensive genetic information, as
well as publicly available Genome-Wide Association Study summary statistics
on modifiable environmental exposures, to assess a putative causal
relationship and shared genetic component between risk factors and multiple
sclerosis (MS).
Forskningsbeskrivning
- Currently, I'm mainly involved in the following projects:
1) Understand the role of hormonal exposure and risk of multiple sclerosis
- a population-based approach and a genome-wide cross-trait analysis
(polycystic ovarian syndrome, sex hormones, and risk of MS)
2) A genome-wide cross-trait analysis between modifiable lifestyle factors
and multiple sclerosis (obesity and MS, body mass index, waist-to-hip
ratio)
3) A genome-wide cross-trait analysis between nutritional exposure and
multiple sclerosis (vitamin D and MS)
4) A genome-wide cross-trait analysis between multiple sclerosis and its
neurological comorbidities (depression, anxiety, and MS)
