Current research and teaching
I am currently involved in two different research projects.
I am Principal Investigator (PI) for the project "RUT tax deductions for the elderly: New conditions for care practices" (FORTE 2022-00566) in which I, together with Sara Eldén, Malmö University, study the growing market of RUT services specifically targeting the elderly.
More on the project in the Lund University Research Portal
In the project “Intimate Partner Violence Against Older Persons: Vulnerability and Help-Seeking” (FORTE 2024-00378) together with Maria Wemrell (PI) Linnaeus University, I study help-seeking, and experiences of what hinders and facilitates help-seeking, among older women and men (from 60 years) exposed to partner violence in Sweden.
More on the project on the Linnaeus University website (opens in a new window)
In previous projects, I have studied the nanny and au pair market in Sweden, as well as intergenerational care.
I teach and supervise on all levels.

Background
In my doctoral dissertation I studied family meals, gender, and class. Since then, I have done research on issues related to different aspects on care, family, and welfare state changes.
