She has over several years been concerned with experimenting with care as an approach and tool for studying values in science and policy with a specific focus on animal research. Based upon a combination of archive studies, laboratory ethnographies, and document-oriented studies, her work has traced the historical development of “skilled care” as an expertise in science, and analyzed the convergence of biological standardization, conservation and technical care in public health.
