At NMD I am involved in research on Emotions in Engineering Education (Johanna Länngren, EMOTE) and expamning on positioning theory with the concept of affect and emotions. I furthermore explore university biology instructors' perspectives on effective and inclusive teaching (in collaboration with Kimbelry Tanner at SEPAL, San Francisco State University) and am furthermore involved in Anita Hussénius' VR projekc I jakt på materiens betydelse - genus, emotioner och utrustning i laborativa undervisningssituationer (with among onthers Annica Gullberg and Kate Scantlebury).

Additionally, I am an active member of the research group for Science Education, UmSER (Umeå Science Education Research).
