Biography

I studied philosophy at the University of Helsinki (PhD 2000) and was appointed docent of philosophy at the same university in 2009. In 2002-2013 I was affiliated with the Academy of Finland Centres of Excellence History of Mind (2002-2007) and Philosophical Psychology, Morality and Politics (2008-2013), PI Simo Knuuttila (University of Helsinki). In 2005-2011 I was Academy Research Fellow.  Since 2013 I am Senior Lecturer in gender studies at the Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥.

Research interests

My research focuses on the history of women philosophers and feminist thought, particularly during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. I am PI for the project Gender in Renaissance and Early Modern Philosophy (2022-2026) funded by the Academy of Finland. I am also coinvestigator in the project Origins of Racializing Thought (2022-2026), PI Malin Grahn-Wilder and funded by the Kone Foundation, and coinvestigator in the partnership Extending New Narratives in the History of Philosophy (2020-2027), PI Lisa Shapiro (McGill University). The partnership is funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and 12 partner institutions.

In 2021, I was on research leave funded by the Kone Foundation, and in 2018-2020, I was PI for the project Early Feminist Thinkers, funded by the Kone Foundation. The team included Tuomas Parsio, Erika Ruonakoski and Laura Lahdensuu, and the project resulted in a volume with Finnish translations of nine early feminist texts. In 2018-2019 I was co-editor-in-chief for the national Finnish journal for gender studies Sukupuolentutkimus-Genusforskning and in 2016-2017 I was coinvestigator in the Erasmus+ Strategic Partnership Gender and Philosophy.
