Personal profile
Research interests
Laura is a postdoctoral researcher. She explores energy transitions integrating ecological economics and industrial ecology. Her current work focuses on quantifying and analysing the nexus of time use, energy, and other materials at the country level, with special emphasis on the lock-in of existent stocks and trade-offs of dimensions. She explores possible transitions to sustainability while keeping “a good life” considering the implications of trade, biophysical and socio-economic constraints in the different sectors of the economy. Previously, she worked within the IASTE team, LIVENlab and visited University of Leiden.
