Mette Falkenberg Krantz serves as an External Lecturer at the Department of Clinical Medicine within the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen. Her institutional affiliation is with the Capital Region of Denmark (Region Hovedstaden), as evidenced by her email address mette.falkenberg.krantz@regionh.dk and Copenhagen-based physical location. She is a core contributor to the Danish High Risk and Resilience Study (VIA 11), focusing on children at familial high risk for severe mental illnesses. Her research centers on early identification of mental disorders in children and adolescents, with emphasis on psychotic experiences in preadolescents, diagnostic stability trajectories, family functioning dynamics, caregiver expressed emotion, social perception deficits in high-risk families, and pandemic-related suicide trends. This work bridges clinical psychiatry with developmental psychology to identify modifiable risk and resilience factors for early intervention strategies. Analysis of her 2024-2025 publications reveals methodological sophistication through nation-wide cohort studies (utilizing sequence analysis), longitudinal high-risk designs (VIA 11), and European multicenter collaborations. Key thematic trends include the interplay between familial genetic vulnerability and environmental stressors, developmental windows for preventive intervention, and pandemic-related disruptions to mental health service utilization patterns among youth. Dr. Krantz operates within the Danish High Risk and Resilience Study collaborative framework, working alongside University of Copenhagen researchers including Merete Nordentoft, Anne Amalie Ellegaard Thorup, and Carsten Hjorthøj. This multidisciplinary team integrates clinical assessments, neurocognitive testing, and family systems analysis to map developmental pathways toward severe mental illnesses, with translational goals for early detection protocols.
