Carolina Overlien serves as Professor in Gender-related Violence and Health at Uppsala University's National Center for Women's Peace (NCK), based at the Academic Hospital in Uppsala. Her institutional affiliation positions her within Sweden's leading medical research environment focused on gender-based violence.
Her research centers on critical contemporary issues including image-based sexual abuse, youth intimate partner violence, and associated health consequences. She specifically investigates psychological impacts, social ramifications, and victimization patterns among adolescents, with strong emphasis on cyber-enabled violence and gendered power dynamics in abusive relationships.
Current publication trends reveal concentrated analysis of systematic reviews on digital sexual abuse outcomes and social consequences of youth partner violence. Her work bridges psychology, public health, and gender studies, addressing adolescent mental health crises stemming from technology-facilitated violence and coercive control in intimate relationships.
NCK functions as her primary research hub, operating within Uppsala University's Academic Hospital framework as a dedicated center for women's health and violence research, providing clinical and academic infrastructure for her investigations into gender-based violence prevention and intervention.
