Charlotte Alm
Assistant Professor
Jag är biträdande handledare för Natalie Durbeej, doktorand vid Karolinska Institutet, som skriver sin avhandling om missbruk, kriminalitet och mental ohälsa inom projektet Mental disorder, substance abuse, and crime (MSAC). PI är Clara Gumpert samt Tom Palmstierna, Sektionen för Rättspsykiatri, Institutionen för Klinisk Neurovetenskap, Karolinska Institutet.
Utöver mitt engagemang i MSAC samarbetar jag även med forskare vid Barn- och ungdomsvetenskapliga Institutionen (professor Ann-Christin Cederborg), Stockholms universitet samt vid Polishögskolan (Johan Gunnarsson). Dessa projekt rör dels utsatta barn och ohälsa samt dels psykologiska aspekter vapenutbildning.
