Kaat's research interests include language revitalization, time and memory, and aging within the context of ethnic minority communities in China. Currently, for their doctoral project, they are conducting ethnographic research in Inner Mongolia, China. They seek to explore the role of Classic Mongolian language beyond mere communication, specifically examining this language’s significance within language classes and singing practices led by elderly Mongolian Chinese individuals.
