Current research

I am interested in the organization and regulation of the healthcare system, in particular with respect to introduction of new medical technologies. My area of expertise is ethics as a form of regulation in relation to human bodily materials and health data. I have worked with, e.g., research biobanking, stem cells, property issues, forensic biobanking, public-private partnerships and public perceptions of genetics. I work with data-intensive healthcare and with the performativity of hopes, promises and expections in the shaping of new technology, in particular focusing on stem cell technology and data intensity. I primarily use qualitative methods.

I recently completed an ERC-funded project on data intensification in healthcare: Policy, Practice and Patient Experience in the Age of Intensified Data Sourcing (POLICYAID). 

I am part of a project mapping the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic: https://coronaminds.ku.dk/

And I am happy to be part of the Novo Nordic Foundation project reNEW on stem cell technology: https://renew.ku.dk/

Teaching

I am course manager on Organisation analysis and philosophy of science on the MA in the public health sciences programme. I also teach topics related to qualitative methods, public health ethics, STS etc. I supervise essays on issues relating to medical STS, health politics, organisation, regulation, and public health ethics.
