I am a university researcher with a multidisciplinary academic background in the humanities and social sciences. Currently, I work at the Helsinki Collegium for Advanced Studies (HCAS). In 2026, I will start working at the Centre for Consumer Society Research, University of Helsinki. I also hold the title of docent in political history at the University of Helsinki. Alongside my research, I occasionally write columns for the Yle.
My current research interests focus on the history of modern medicine, occupational health and the formation of health citizenship in contemporary society. I am particularly interested in the complex, controversial history of recognizing, naming, investigating and classifying fatigue. I am part of the Management Committee of EuroHealthHist, a COST Action that seeks to facilitate the production of broad and deep comparative health history with a focus on Europe in the modern period.
Within Young Academy Finland, I am a vice-member of the board (2023–2024) and lead the team group Open and responsible science.
