Research
Since 2009, I worked on four EU-projects:
AMIEHS: Avoidable mortality in the European Union: towards better indicators for the effectiveness of health systems
EURO-GBD-SE: The potential for reduction of health inequalities in Europe
INEQ-CITIES: Socioeconomic inequalities in mortality: evidence and policies in cities of Europe
DEMETRIQ: Developing methodologies to reduce inequalities in the determinants of health
My last concluded project (2013-2017) was an ERC-project:
SESandHEALTH: Socioeconomic Status and Health: Disentangling causal pathways in a life course perspective
In 2022, I started a new project on the "Acceptance of Naturopathy and Complementary Medicine in Germany" in cooperation with the Charité Berlin, funded by the Karl and Veronica Carstens Foundation
