Søren is a post-doctoral researcher in the PINPOINT project. He earned a Ph.D. in political science from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in 2025. Prior to embarking on his academic adventures, he worked with economic policy-making in the Danish Ministry of Culture. He currently also holds a position as a postdoc at Aarhus University. Production networks are a central part of his work, and are either front and center or important analytical background mechanics in much of his work.

In the PINPOINT project, Søren examines how institutions (e.g., welfare states) and culture (e.g., language) shape international trade and the politics of globalization across production networks. He also does research on descriptive and substantive political representation, including how descriptive representation shapes international trade along the dirtiness of production networks. He moreover researches how production network linkages shape mass preferences for climate policies, and the extent to which welfare states can mitigate backlash to the climate transition.
