About Maja Dobrosavljevic
Research interests: psychiatric epidemiology, ADHD in adults/older adults, and the association between psychiatric conditions, such as bipolar disorder, and physical health issues (e.g., metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease).
Maja obtained her PhD degree in psychiatric epidemiology, with the focus on Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in older adults and a potential link of ADHD and age-related disorders, such as dementia and cardiovascular disorders, using Swedish population-based register data. She also has a psychology degree from Belgrade University, Serbia, and a research master degree in Cognitive and Clinical Neuroscience from Maastricht University, the Netherlands.
