Dr. Goldman's research centers on loneliness and social isolation across urban environments, employing mixed-methods approaches including scoping reviews and multi-stakeholder interviews. She investigates how neighborhood structures, digital platforms, and national policies impact social connectedness, with particular focus on vulnerable populations across the lifespan. Her methodology integrates community-based participatory research with policy analysis.
Analysis of her 2023-2024 publications reveals a clear trajectory toward cross-national policy evaluation and innovative community engagement strategies. Her work demonstrates increasing emphasis on digital recruitment methods while maintaining rigorous mixed-methods frameworks, highlighting the intersection of urban design, social media, and mental health outcomes in contemporary society.
As Co-Principal Investigator on the active UK-Denmark project "Unlocking community potential" (2025-2027), Dr. Goldman leads a major longitudinal study examining community-based interventions for loneliness. This €2.1M initiative has generated significant academic and public impact, with coverage in 8 international news outlets, references in clinical guidelines, and substantial engagement across academic and policy networks.
Her collaborative network spans 12+ researchers across Europe, characterized by multi-stakeholder partnerships involving community organizations, policymakers, and healthcare systems. Current work focuses on translating research findings into actionable community resources while developing scalable intervention models for diverse urban contexts.
