Associate professor in Economic History. Research interests: public and private insurance, historical morbidity patterns and historical alcohol regulations.
I am a Senior lecturer in Gender Studies and an associate professor in Economic History. My research deals with gender history, historical welfare state research, historical demography and labour history. Together with my colleagues I investigate issues regarding historical, gendered morbidity patterns and causes of morbidity. By employing a historical database, we also investigate the morbidity during the 1918 Influenza pandemic and how it affected people in relation to gender and SES. Another area of research is related to casual effects of historical alcohol regulations. Here we investigate different outcomes such as mortality, poverty relief, femicide and alcohol related crimes.
My teaching in graduate and undergradute level spans between gender equality and the welfare state, quantitative methodology and research design.
