(née Klotz)
Senior Fellow (Strategic Management & Research)
In our division I am both manager and researcher. I do science facilitation in the sense of managing, communicating, and ameliorating our studies. I also do my own research and take on the explorative phases of our research projects. Before starting in ergonomics, I worked in anthropology and science and technology studies.
Fields of interest:
- Agile academia
- Science facilitation
- Solidarities and technological change
- Science and Technology Studies
- Medical anthropology
- Qualitative methods and new methodologies
- Anthropological perspectives on human-environment interaction
- Managing interdisciplinarity
