Kort presentation
I am Shafqat Ahmad, Associate Professor (Docent) in Molecular Epidemiology. My research focuses on understanding cardiovascular disease development. My research combines methods from the molecular and genetic epidemiology field including biochemistry, genomics, metabolomics, microbiota with relation to lifestyle factors in large scale population based studies to better understand the pathophysiology of cardiovascular disease and to improve disease prediction.
Nyckelord
- obesity
- metabolomics
- gut microbiota
- type 2 diabetes
- epidemiology
- population genetics
- cardiovascular disease
