With a long-time engagement in the archaeology and research of the Viking town Birka, she has investigated the material remains of martial society and explored issues of warfare, identity, mobility, and material culture in the Viking World. Her research has often adopted an interdisciplinary approach, combining archaeological material and methods with genetics and isotope studies.
