Short presentation
My research explores the intersection of genetics, psychiatric traits, personality, and cardiometabolic health, with a focus on how these factors impact mental well-being and physical health, using large-scale cohort studies and Mendelian randomization. A key area of my current work addresses mental health challenges, especially among youth.
