I recently joined the iniative of the ÖAD to become a science ambassador at Austrian schools. In my opinion, it's a very important initative to strengthen trust in science in society and exchange about research early on. Please share and consider joining!

It was a pleasure to host this inspiring group of scholars for two days in Krems this week & think together about ongoing research on #mobility #control as #state-(re)making in #conflict settings for our upcoming SI with Journal of Refugee Studies.

Honoured to have joined the Young Academy of the Austrian Academy of Science and slightly relieved that I am still considered young with my 39 years 👵 Looking forward to promote non-precarious work conditions, equality, diversity and interdisciplinarity in Austrian academia.

Inspiring IMISCOE Spring Conference coming to an end! Sad that I could not participate in person due to a broken leg but glad for its hybrid format to get an overview of and engage with exciting ongoing research & reflect on knowledge production, legal status transitions and blurred boundaries.

New section of our SYREALITY Methodological Handbook available
We are happy to share the latest update of the #SYREALITY Methodological Handbook about our qualitative data collection. Chapter 3 now includes a new section on collaborative data collection, sampling strategies, experiences with recruiting participants, & reflections on interview encounters by the whole team. Hopefully it is of interest for those who participated in our project as well as other researchers working with life histories and cognitive maps.

I am very much looking forward to starting my ERC project RESTATE about how refugees perceive and engage with the state throughout their displacement journeys, and how these perceptions shape their roles as political actors in September 2025. I am going to hire 2 postdocs and 1 PhD later this year!

Just saying a first hello here to fill my blank wall. I hope it is less violent and more social here.
