Ida Asta Olsen is a PhD student at the National Institute of Public Health, involved in the research group focusing on Epidemiology and Interventions. Her current project investigates the relationship between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) exposure, breastfeeding patterns, and the gut microbiota of infants. This project aims to discern the associations of breastmilk PFAS concentrations with gut microbiota composition at various ages and to examine the combined impact of breastfeeding duration and quantity on both breast milk PFAS concentration and gut microbiome composition.
