Personal profile
Research profile
I am an Associate Professor at Aalborg University, where I am a member of the research group in Techno-Anthropology and Participation (TAPAR). I serve on the board of the think tank: Techno-Ethics.
My research cluster around four aspects of Responsible Innovation:
- Ethical Technology Assessment
- Robust Technologies through Action Research
- Teaching Responsibility in STEM
- Interdisciplinary Policy Advice on Technological Risks
I teach many of these aspects at the Bachelor and Master’s of Science programs in Techno-Anthropology, which I co-founded in 2011.
