Accepting PhD Students
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 contributed to research on how digital technologies operate in and beyond organizational contexts and on the role of users. This has led to deep insights on the workings of information infrastructures with human users as a key focus area for understanding the dynamics and effects of their scope and scale. A main interest of mine is public sector digitalization and its impact on welfare service systems. 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 and 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 supervise PhD students within the field of Science and Technology Studies. At DTU I teach the PhD course Experimenting with Ethnography and contribute to the Theory of Science BA course and the From Analytics to Action Msc course. I give many public talks in academic as well as non-academic settings.
