Vanaf februari 2017 is Sofie Remijsen universitair docent Oude Geschiedenis aan de UvA. Ze studeerde Oude Geschiedenis aan de KULeuven (België), waar ze in 2006 haar master afsloot en in 2012 promoveerde. Vanaf 2013 werkte ze vier jaar als Juniorprofessorin für Alte Geschichte aan de universiteit van Mannheim (Duitsland).

Haar onderzoek richt zich vooral op de cultuur en het sociale leven in het Romeinse Rijk tot in de late oudheid, met een bijzondere interesse voor sport en spelen, papyri uit Egypte en kalenders en tijdsgebruik. Haar doctoraatsonderzoek over het verdwijnen van atletiekwedstrijden zoals de Olympische Spelen werd door Cambridge University Press gepubliceerd: The End of Greek Athletics in Late Antiquity (2015).

Op dit moment ontwikkelt Sofie Remijsen een nieuw onderzoeksproject over tijd en identiteit in de late oudheid. In het kader hiervan is de co-coördinator van het DFG-netwerk CHRONOS.
