My PhD project studies the connection between outdoor recreation and human microbiota, both in urban and natural settings. Topics that are of interest to me include connectedness to nature, health effects derived from nature experience, and sustainability. I have an interdisciplinary background in environmental sciences, accompanied with experience in circularity, environmental legislation and education, GIS, Green Care, and biodiversity issues. With my research I wish to emphasize the importance of biodiversity and well-functioning ecosystems for human health.
