Background

Since mid 1990’s, I have conducted research in media and communication science. I have been responsible for around 20 research projects, and published a big number of articles, reports and books. I defended my doctoral thesis about free dailies and their implication on the market in 2003.

A few research projects from recent years are the following:
• Visual journalism in transition, a project about the conditions and development of photojournalism over time (2013-2015)
• The Newspaper Research Program, a research program about media audiences and their changing habits (2008-2015)
• The commercialization of media, a project on the media content and its change over time (2008-2012)

Area of interest

My research focus on media transformations of different kind: the structure of the media landscape, the content of the media and the media audience.

Teaching and tutoring

My teaching is mainly about research methods, as well as supervision on all levels.
