I am a Research Assistant at Copenhagen Centre for Health Research in the Humanities working at the project Sund Mund Hele Livet (Lifelong Oral Health) to improve dental health among older people in Danish eldercare.

I hold a Master’s Degree in European Ethnology. My primary interest is in cultural-analytical and –historical aspects of the medical- and health related field. I did my Master’s Thesis in collaboration with CoRe. I examined how people in the age of 15-25 cope with skin issues in their daily life.

Over the last years, I have been working at the The Open-Air Museum as a guide, teaching visitors about the everyday life of the peasant in the 17^th and 18^th century.
