Ellen Kupka

Ellen Kupka serves as an Assistant Professor at the Center for Clinical Research Dalarna, affiliated with Uppsala University. Her research is dedicated to improving maternal and fetal health through the study of pregnancy complications, particularly preeclampsia and preterm birth.

Her primary research interests encompass a range of areas in maternal health:

• Maternal-Fetal Medicine
• Obstetrics and Gynecology
• Pregnancy Complications (especially preeclampsia)
• Cardiovascular Physiology in Pregnancy
• Epidemiology of Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes
• Pharmacological Interventions in Pregnancy

Dr. Kupka's recent work (2022-2025) centers on the role of low-dose aspirin in preventing preeclampsia and preterm birth. Her studies span clinical trials, epidemiological cohort analyses, and molecular investigations of vascular pathways, with a particular focus on addressing gaps in low-resource settings and understanding biological mechanisms.
