Research Profile
Social Inequality I Environment I Methodology I Family I Health.
Christiane Bozoyan Christiane Bozoyan’s research focuses on the intersection of social inequality, discrimination, and social norms. Using longitudinal and experimental data, she specifically investigates the role of ascriptive characteristics—such as body weight and gender—in relation to social opportunities. As the project leader of the environmental panel GLEN, a long-term project funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), her research increasingly centers on environmentally relevant attitudes, environmental health inequalities, and methodological aspects.
