Resume

I specialize in research on mediatization through new technologies. I am currently conducting research on the transformation of everyday life of media technology users in the face of sudden changes and crises, such as e.g. pandemic and war. I specialize in the mediatization of micro (individual) and meso (social) levels of home life, family life, well-being and physical activity of ordinary people.
