Short presentation
This text is not available in English, therefore the Swedish version is shown.
My research focuses mainly on the history of biology, science education, and civic science. I am currently working on scientific publication practices in the first half of the nineteenth century. My publications include articles on natural history museums, school science, amateur botanists, and biodiversity recording projects.
