My research interests are Europeanization and EU gender politics. My current research addresses the unintentional (re-)construction of gender differences through European policy initiatives. In addition, I have published on various aspects of gender policy and gender relations in the European Union member states.

Approach to Teaching
I believe that teaching is most effective and most enjoyable when students are actively involved in the design and the development of their studies. I try to achieve this through a number of innovative and interactive teaching methods including simulation exercises, "interactive syllabus", debate assignments and the like.
