Postdoctoral Fellow

Yngvild Eline Brandser Alvsåker

Field of work

Postdoctoral fellow at Center for Care Research, west. I was authorized as a registered nurse in 2010 and finished my master's degree in Nursing Science at University of Bergen in 2015. I have work experience from nursing homes, hospital and nursing education. 

I defended my Ph.D. at the University of Bergen (UiB) in December 2023 with the dissertation: "Telecare in Norwegian Home Care Services: A Praxeological Study on Governmental Visions in the Face of Market Forces and Municipal Realities".

"I am currently a postdoctoral fellow in an institutional strategic research project funded by the Research Council of Norway (NFR): 'The politics of a changing institutional ecology: coordinating and prioritizing healthcare and welfare services in the municipal landscape' (the ISP project). The project explores, in a comparative manner, the factors that shape and promote service collaboration in municipal healthcare services as well as other public welfare services."
