Ingrid Dieset

Ingrid Dieset is Associate Professor in the Adult Psychiatry Unit at the University of Oslo, researching biological mechanisms of severe mental disorders. Her work integrates psychiatric genetics with metabolic and inflammatory biomarkers to understand comorbidities in psychotic and mood disorders.

Research examines cardiovascular risk factors, inflammatory pathways, and neurobiological mechanisms underlying agitation in psychiatric conditions. She has developed interventions for acute psychiatric care environments and validated assessment tools for clinical practice.

Dr. Dieset leads studies investigating the impact of antipsychotic medications on metabolic parameters and coordinates interdisciplinary projects on neuroimmune interactions in mental illness. Her group collaborates extensively with neuroscience and immunology laboratories to translate biomarker findings into clinical applications.
