About me
- I am Senior Lecturer and Consultant at the Clinical Epidemiology Unit, and
the Director of Research Education at the Department of Medicine, Solna with
more than 200 doctoral candidates.
A great variety of research is performed at my department, and I get insights
in laboratory- as well as clinical research, and research education. My
vocational training is Nephrology.
I am running the Karolinska Institutet and Stockholm County Council's
Research School for Clinicians in Epidemiology and am the chairman of its
steering committee.
From 2008 to 2013 I was one of the KI Central Directors of Research Education
with co-responsibility of management of student issues, and development of
the research education.

*Some thoughts on research education*
To me, it seems as when teaching and learning are core values in the
discovery efforts among curious researchers eager to learn, the research
education is at its best. I find such permissive attitudes towards learning
and teaching important throughout the organisation in which the research
education takes place. I strive to communicate this attitude as the director
of research education, and find a pragmatic and pedagogical approach to both
supervisors and doctoral students being successful in the administrative
tasks of a director.
I believe the administration of research education should facilitate the
learning processes while considering both the students and the supervisors.
The overall goal should be a continuous improvement of the quality of the
graduating new researchers.

*Pharmacoepidemiology*
Mainly acting as a senior scientific advisor in post-marketing safety
surveillance projects of novel pharmacological treatments of inflammatory
