Research interests

I am passionate about health promotion and empowerment as well as pscychosocial aspects of long-term conditions, such as diabetes. My PhD project is focused on person-cenetered diabetes care and the use of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) to support this approach. I am very interested in quality of life, health and self-management behaviors, and the interconnections of psychological and physical well-being.

Techniques, methods & infrastructure

Qualitative research (incl. focus group and in-depth interviews, theamtic analysis and grounded theory); Consensus studies; Survey-based research; Patient-reported outcomes
