Current research

My main expertise lies mainly within media and conflicts. I focus on the way in which digital media reconfigure the way conflicts are played out, represented and perceived. Moreover, I also conduct research on how the interplay between politics, popular culture and social media platforms contributes to polarization, populism and misinformation, for instance in studies of memes, influencers, anti-vax, etc.
