She received her PhD in 2013 at the University of St Andrews on the basis of her doctoral dissertation Controversies of Conversions: Exploring the Potential Terrorist Threat of European Converts to Islam,[2] which analyses the potential terrorist threat posed by European converts to Islam. To this end, she conducted an interdisciplinary fieldwork on this issue, as well as on issues of identity and belonging considered from a security perspective, in Scotland, England, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Poland.[3]
Academic career[edit]

She was an E.MA Fellow and a lecturer of international relations at the European Interuniversity Center for Human Rights and Democratization (Centro Europeo Inter-universitario per i Diritti Umani e la Democratizzazione) in Venice (Italy) (2011–2013),[4] visiting lecturer at the Jagiellonian University in Kraków (2015–2016), assistant professor and lecturer at the Vistula University in Warsaw (2015–2017).[5] Since 2018, she has been an assistant professor at the Department of Political Science at the Faculty of Social Studiescs of Masaryk University (Fakulta sociálních studií Masarykovy univerzity) in Brno (Czech Republic).[6]
Research and contribution to knowledge[edit]
The axis of her research interests is international security with particular emphasis on political violence in asymmetric conflicts, specifically in contemporary Islamic terrorism (especially related to jihadism), and her field of expertise is the diagnosis and counteracting radicalisation and terrorist activity of European converts to Islam. In her dissertation, she presents, among others, her own concept of threat assessment for converts to Islam based on a typology taking into account the motivational structure of potential terrorists.
Another focus of her work is research on non-linear and cross-sectoral security threats in the context of the emerging fortress Europe (“Festung Europa”), mainly in lieu of securitisation of migration and the terrorist threat on the continent. Her theses are a continuation of the Copenhagen School approach and focus on the ramifications of threats present at the sub-state level (societal security), especially in the context of cultural security.
