Jag är antropolog och mitt forskningsintresse berör hälso-och sjukvård policy, särskilt på global nivå. Jag forskar förhandlingar på Världshälsoorganisationen ur ett etnografisk perspektiv.
Jag är också intresserad av hiv policy samt reproduktiv hälsa i Sverige, och har forskat våld mot hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal.
