Researcher working on the history of medical journalism in post-war Sweden.
I am currently working in two research projects on health and medicine in Swedish press and televion 1945–2000, funded by Ridderstads Stiftelse för Historisk Grafisk Forskning and Wahlgrenska Stiftelsen respectively.
My doctoral thesis, which I defended in March of 2022, looks at the Swedish controversy on dental materials and health in science, politics and the media during the 1980's and-90's. I studied how the issue of the so called oral galvanism arose in the late 1970's, how it transformed into a ontorversy about dental amalgam and mercury poisoning in the early 1980's, and how this controversy came to unfold through different actors and in different arenas.
