Edith Mad­sen

I work as a datamanager at the ECON department and as a CBS-wide datamanager in relation to usage of Danish Register data in research projects. I support researchers by facilitating access to Danish register data, primarily from Statistics Denmark as well as other data sources. My role includes helping researchers setting up projects, complying with the rules for working with microdata, ensuring GDPR compliance, and maintaining high standards for data documentation and governance. I possess in-depth knowledge of the structure, content, and historical context of Danish administrative data, which enables me to support researchers in navigating and utilizing these complex sources effectively.  

My background is in research within micro-econometric methods, where I have worked extensively with methodology development, programming, and a broad range of datasets—including both register and survey data.
