Biography
Dr. Rogne is a medical doctor and researcher who focuses on perinatal epidemiology. Some of the ongoing projects includes evaluating how climate change affects pregnancy, the role of modifiable risk factors on reproductive health and adverse pregnancy outcomes, and how being born preterm affects the risk of cardiovascular and infectious diseases in adulthood. To tackle clinically relevant questions and providing robust results, he applies modern methods ranging from negative controls and inverse-probability weighting to genetic epidemiological methods and genome-wide association analyses. Dr. Rogne places emphasis on using high-quality data, in particular by use of data from population based cohorts and national registries.
