Welcome! I am Research Fellow and Ph.D. Student in the Global Infrastructures research group at the Department of Informatics of the University of Oslo, Norway. My general research interest is standardisation processes relating to information and communication technologies; specifically focusing on wireless information infrastructures, standardisation governance and the political economy of digital convergence. My research is funded by Telenor's Research & Innovation Unit, The Research Council of Norway, as well as the European Commission's 7th Research Framework Programme. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions! |
