About me

I am an assistant professor and deputy director of the Institute for Analytical Sociology of Linköping University in Sweden.  Since completing my Ph.D. in sociology at the University of California, Berkeley, in 2016 I have also held positions at the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies and the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. 

A computational and economic sociologist by training, I am interested in the sociology of markets, science, and culture.  My research uses the tools of computational text analysis and social network analysis to study how individuals and organizations sustain a sense of shared order in uncertain, highly competitive environments.  My current projects examine the dynamics of scientific disciplines and asset-backed securities markets.  I have also begun work on a multi-year study of the awarding of the Nobel Prize funded by the Riksbankens Jubileumsfond.
