Short presentation

In my PhD project Gender, Hybrid Identities, and Exoskeletons: The Armed Forces, I aim to research how gender is manifested in and through the wearable robots called exoskeletons. A core focus is on gender, gender identity and embodiment in relation to exoskeletons in the armed forces.

I am also the Equal Opportunities Representative at the Centre for Gender Research and take part in the research group Technologization of the Everyday.
