Teaching

Graduate teaching and educational resources.

My teaching focuses on causal inference, regression methods, and spatial epidemiology, with an emphasis on conceptual understanding, reproducible data analysis in R, and applying modern statistical methods to real-world public health problems. I teach graduate- and doctoral-level courses in biostatistics at the University of Gothenburg.


Areas of Teaching

🧠 Causal Inference

Counterfactual reasoning, mediation, modern causal inference methods, and sensitivity analysis.

πŸ“ˆ Regression & Survival Analysis

Regression modeling, generalized linear models, survival analysis, model diagnostics, and interpretation.

πŸ—Ί Spatial Epidemiology

Disease mapping, Bayesian spatial models, GIS, spatial statistics, and applications in population health.
