The candidate completed a 12-month research stay at the University of Bristol MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit, an epicentre for the UK's most advanced population health science research. She received advanced training in causal inference modelling and genetic epidemiology methods that are key to achieve the project aims. The stay was well placed early in the project, ensuring the analytical skills gained in the first year are efficiently implemented. The exchange fellowship has contributed to further extending the collaboration between the Psychiatric Genetic Epidemiology (PaGE) group at Lovisenberg and the MRC Integrative Epidemiology Unit.
The candidate is currently participating in a one-year (July 2019 to July 2020) research stay abroad, at the department of Population Health Sciences, at the University of Bristol in Bristol United Kingdom. Here, she will attend advanced training courses in causal inference modelling and genetic epidemiology. These new methods are integral for the design and analyses of the projects key publications. The stay is well placed early in the project, ensuring the analytical skills gained in the first year can be directly and efficiently implemented over the second and third project years. In the 4th month of her abroad stay, the candidate attended a data visualisation course, during which, she honed the skills to produce high quality publishable figures. She then visited Oslo in December 2019 to translate these skills to the wider research team at Lovisenberg, including researchers and PhD candidates at the Norwegian Institutes of Public Health. The stay abroad has also benefitted the candidate's professional development through collaboration with the Integrative Epidemiology Unit (IEU), an epicentre for the UK's most advanced population health science research. Through the IEU the candidate has met new international researchers, attended statistical journal clubs, presented in departmental meetings and science communication events. In March she will represent the University of Bristol at the Genetics and Genomics Roadshow, a science event for 12 and 13 year old students.
