The core activities of the department are research, doctoral education and undergraduate education for medical and biomedical students.
Research group

CPE is involved in several international studies focusing on drug treatment during pregnancy and the consequences for mother and her child. A strong team of epidemiologists, statisticians, medical doctors, and post-doctoral researchers exists at the CPE, and international collaborations have been established with researchers around the world in the International Pregnancy Safety Study consortium (InPreSS) and its Nordic counterpart NorPreSS. We now wish to expand the team with a research assistant. For more information about CPE, please see http://ki.se/en/meds/centre-for-pharmacoepidemiology/.
