Lecturer
Field / Discipline
Fields of expertise: Science and Technology Studies (STS), Science Studies, Knowledge infrastructures, Science-society relations, Multispecies care, Actionable environmental knowledge

My Ph.D. project investigates (1) how bird ecologists create knowledge claims in contemporary knowledge infrastructures where the emerging and long-standing data collection and analysis techniques are used at the same time, (2) as well as how to contribute to such knowledge infrastructures by tackling credibility issues observed in the study case.

I am highly motivated to intervene with environmental research norms, practices, and tools to transform the type of knowledge they produce into a just and actionable one for multispecies liveable futures.
