    Forskningsinteresser

    Forskningen gjennom de siste 40 årene har vært konsentrert omkring de kroniske sykdommers epidemiologi, særlig hjerte-karsykdommer og kreft. I en lang periode hadde jeg vitenskapelig samarbeid med Loma Linda University, California, USA. 

    Se vedlegg for en oppdatert oversikt over vitenskapelig aktivitet de siste 25 årene.

    Undervisning
