Katri Manninen

I work as a university nurse at the department of infectious diseases at Karolinska University Hospital and I am affiliated researcher to HIC, MINT.

My work at the hospital includes clinical work and work with nursing development and educational issues. My passion is learning in clinical context from the perspectives of students, supervisors, and patients. I am a member of a team that established a Clinical Education Ward at the department of infectious diseases and currently pedagogical leader for the ward.

I have been involved in establishing a specialist nursing program in infectious diseases at Swedish Red Cross University. I supervise students in clinical practice, give lectures on infectious diseases and nursing and on learning in clinical context. I am a pedagogical advisor in several national and international educational projects.

My research is about clinical education and learning in clinical practice. I have explored experience of authenticity in student learning, supervisors´ pedagogical role and patient involvement in a clinical context with an explicit pedagogical framework.

My ongoing research is about learning clinical reasoning, supervisors’ role in clinical education, learning ethics in clinical practice, peer-learning in clinical practice and simulation in nursing education. I am a member of several research networks and supervisor for doctoral students.
