I am a postdoctoral researcher in Social Policy. My main research interests are informal care among older adults and the general development in formal eldercare. I use both quantitative and qualitative methods in my research. I am currently the PI of a project on informal care (2022-2024) where we study risk factors for loneliness across time, predictors of formal support use, and needs of peer support among informal caregivers.

Starting in Fall 2023, I work in a research project led by Fredrica Nyqvist where we investigate "blue zones", areas characterized by extreme longevity, in a Nordic context using GERDA (Gerontological Regional Database).

In 2018-2021, I coordinated and worked with the evaluation of the Expert Caregiver project [Erfarenhetsmentorer för närståendevårdare] led by Fredrica Nyqvist, where we trained former caregivers to become peer supports to current caregivers. It was a collaboration between Åbo Akademi University, Novia University of Applied Sciences and NGO Folkhälsan.

I have also worked with the GERDA waves in 2016 and 2021.

I teach in Camilla Nordberg's bachelor level courses about equality policies and gender, globalisation and social sustainability.
