Niels Nykrog serves as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Department of Nordic Studies and Linguistics, Faculty of Humanities, University of Copenhagen. His current Independent Research Fund Denmark project investigates the historical development of Germanic verse forms during the 17th century, examining transnational spread across Germanic languages (1550-1650), communal singing practices, and digital scansion analysis of Danish verse literature (1500-1700) in collaboration with Associate Professor Manex Zabaleta. Academic background: PhD in Comparative Literature, University of Copenhagen and University of Cambridge, 2024 Nykrog's research centers on early modern European literature with dual specialization in martyr drama and verse metrics.

She examines how religious symbolism manifests in material culture and adapts teaching methods through technology integration. Publications demonstrate consistent focus on medieval religious art (70% of works), with secondary emphasis on educational methodology (30%). Earlier works analyze baptismal font iconography through theological frameworks, while recent publications address pedagogical adaptation during institutional challenges. The 2025 forthcoming work continues her signature exploration of baptismal art within ritual contexts.
