I'm a Science and Technology Studies (STS) scholar originally trained as an anthropologist. For more than two decades, I have conducted research into the role of technology and knowledge practices in society. I have been fascinated with how digital technologies operate in and beyond organizational contexts. This has led to research on information infrastructures with human users as a key focus area for understanding the dynamics and effects of large-scale infrastructuring. A main interest of mine is public sector digitalization and its impact on welfare. A main concern revolves around mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion due to digital innovation and the intensification of data usage in the public sector. I explore these issues through concepts such as 'partially digital citizenship', 'informal digital welfare work', and 'experiential socially thick computing'. I have contributed to and co-edited several books withing STS and anthropology and have extensive experience in leading large research projects. I currently (2022-23) supervise 5 PhD students and teach the Theory of Science course at the DTU.
