Biography
I am a geographer interested in the intersection of environmental, historical and cultural geography. I undertook my undergraduate degree and doctorate at the E枚tv枚s Lor谩nd University and worked as a researcher at the Geographical Institute, HUN-REN CSFK in Budapest, Hungary. My research pathway drove me from studying the perceptions of landscape changes through being involved in long-term soil experiments to my current postdoctoral project about the politics of international soil science in the early twentieth century. Through investigating the case of soil science's history, I aim to understand the geographies and politics of the circulation of knowledge between different scales and explore how different ideas and material agencies transform the environment.
