I am economist and sociologist by training working in the field of demography, particularly migration studies. My interests include research methods, migration and economic integration patterns, intersections between family and migration, and immigration from ex-USSR.

I teach methods in social research, demography, migration theories and trends. I am supervising BA, MA and PhD dissertations on topics of migration, family formation and transformation, ageing, health and labour market. 

Why ISSC?

My interdisciplinary background allows for discussing a social change from different perspectives. Moreover, my expertise in the field of international migration allows for linking social processes to global changes affecting societies and individuals.
