Mitt primära forskningsfält är historisk och samtida demografi. Jag är verksam vid Institutionen för Ide- och samhällstudier, samt vid Centrum för Demografi och åldrandeforskning (CEDAR) vid Umeå universitet. Jag är för närvarande också affilierad forskare vid Demografiska enheten (SUDA), Sociologiska institutionen, Stockholms universitet och Institutet för miljömedicin (IMM)-Epedemiologi vid Karolinska institutet.

Min forskning kretsat främst kring drivkrafterna bakom de långsiktiga förändringarna i familjedynamik och levnadsförhållanden i Sverige och övriga västländer sedan det sena 1800-talet fram till idag. Specifikt har mitt arbete berört utveklingen av familjebildning/fertilitet, skilsmässor och hushållssammansättning i Sverige och andra länder främst i Europa.

Bortsett från den historiska forskningen kring bland annat fertiltietsförädningar arbetar jag för närvarade som koordinator för projektet Single Living, Co-Residence and Family Complexity among the Elderly of Today and Tomorrow vilket fokuserar på utvecklingen av ensamboendet i Sverige och andra västländer sedan 1990-talet. Detta projekt är en del av FORTE-programmet Ageing well - individuals, families and households under changing demographic regimes in Sweden (Forskningsrådet för hälsa, arbetsliv och välfärd, FORTE, DNR: 2016-07115) som leds av Professor Gunnar Andersson Stockholm University Demography Unit (SUDA).
