Research


My research addresses how societies respond to diversity in the context of global challenges - such as stigma and inequality, loneliness, infectious diseases, women's health, migration, social conflict, political polarization, and climate change - and their effects on health and wellbeing (UN SDG3, SDG5, SDG10). I examine how social processes shape relations among people from diverse social and cultural backgrounds (in settings like healthcare and education) and contribute to social and health inequalities, across the lifespan and in different cultures.
