My research deals with the production and use of science for policy focusing on the evaluation of the potential harm posed by endocrine-disrupting substances and sustainable sewage management in growing urban areas. The questions that drive my research are: What kind of knowledge is needed, used and trusted? How does the knowledge used impact perceived solutions? How might we facilitate for decision-makers and the public to ‘unpack’ assumptions, values and preferences that are embedded in such knowledge?
I also conduct research in higher education, with the questions above in the center but then asking how to teach about science for policy (knowledge about knowledge).
