Андреас Каттем Хусой удостоен награды GBD Emerging Researcher Award за вклад в глобальную оценку бремени головных болей

Andreas Kattem Husøy Andreas Kattem Husøy, a physician-researcher at St. Olav’s University Hospital, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), and the Norwegian Centre for Headache Research (NorHead), is recognized for his contributions to advancing the measurement of headache disorders within the Global Burden of Disease study. His research focuses on the global epidemiology and burden of headache disorders, particularly improving how their substantial impact is represented in global health estimates. Dr. Husøy is first author of the most recent GBD study on headache disorders, published in The Lancet Neurology in 2025. Since 2023, he has worked to improve GBD headache models, including spending six months at IHME collaborating directly with researchers to refine estimates for headache disorders, a collaboration that continues today. Beyond his GBD research, Dr. Husøy serves as a Director and Trustee of Lifting the Burden, which leads the Global Campaign against Headache in official relations with the World Health Organization. He is also a member of the editorial board of The Journal of Headache and Pain. Husøy earned his medical degree from NTNU in 2018 and completed his PhD in neuroscience there in 2020, with research focused on headache and brain morphology. Dr. Husøy’s research and leadership reflect a sustained commitment to closing gaps between headache research and global health measurement, particularly among underrepresented populations. His work to strengthen the evidence on headache disorders and ensure their burden is accurately represented makes him a distinguished recipient of the 2026 GBD Emerging Researcher Award.
