Since September 2017 I am a Senior Researcher at the European Centre for Minority Issues (ECMI), a Danish-German research centre located in Flensburg/Flensborg.
I am particularly interested in media operating in minority languages, such as Danish in Germany, German in Denmark, German in Poland, Basque or Galician. Within this area I have been working on such specific aspects as the purpose of minority language media, digitalisation of minority language newspapers or journalistic practices.
Since October 2024 I am a Grant Holder Scientific Representative in relation to the COST Action 23105 - Language Plurality in Europe’s Changing Media Sphere (PLURILINGMEDIA).
