She leads a Leibniz junior research group investigating the multidimensional drivers and impacts of rural (im)mobility through the development of a multidimensional well-being index. Her research focuses on empirical microeconomics, quality of life in rural areas, household finances in relation to subjective well-being, and social comparison processes.
