I'm an Assistant Professor of Applied Statistics in the Department of Animal Science, at the Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark. I undertake research on environmental problems, including climate change and atmospheric pollution, affecting lakes. I use lake sediments to look back in time at the history of lakes to look at what organisms are present and how the species in the lake have changed through time and how lakes evolve and respond to pollution and perturbations. I'm now applying these approaches to problems in Animal Science at the interaction between the environment and human and animal health.
