About me
I am an associate professor and deputy director of the Institute for Analytical Sociology at Linköping University, Sweden. Since completing my Ph.D. in sociology at the University of California, Berkeley, 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.
An economic and computational sociologist by training, I use historical methods along with quantitative techniques to understand how people create, sustain, and transform institutions in uncertain times. My current research examines the development of science and literature over the past two centuries as well as the circulation of knowledge in contemporary social science. I am also active in several collaborations to develop computational social science and digital humanities infrastructures in Europe, including the Swedish Excellence Center in Computational Social Science and the European Network for the Science of Science.
