"Throughout my career, teaching has always been an important, active and vital part. Since 2003, I created and maintained a productive research and clinical environment in Västernorrland County and Sundsvall Teaching Hospital, Sweden, where many PhD candidates defended their theses under my supervision. I developed and implemented my own pedagogical points of view. I have had the opportunity to teach medical and nursing students, junior and senior residents, PhD and other research candidates.
Since 2009/2010, I have been an examiner in the Swedish and European (representing Sweden) speciality examinations of orthopaedics and traumatology, both for the written and clinical parts. Before each clinical examination, examiners participate in a one-day course in examination techniques.
Between April 2013 and January 2019 I was employed as a senior university lecturer/Associate Professor, with part-time devoted to teaching and research. I was also the responsible lecturer for the 8th term medical students in Sundsvall, with the administrative workload for 10 different subjects (orthopaedics, hand surgery, rheumatology, radiology, rehabilitation, dermatology, infection, general medicine and personal development).
During this period, and specifically between January 2016 to January 2018, I also had the responsibility of being Program Director/examiner for the entire 8th term medical education, Umeå University. This includes the study centres of Umeå, Sundsvall, Östersund and Sunderbyn, with the administrative workload for 10 different subjects (orthopaedics, hand surgery, rheumatology, radiology, rehabilitation, dermatology, infection, general medicine and personal development).
I have also been involved in the evaluation of overseas doctors applying for completion of their medical education in Sweden since Umeå University took over this responsibility from Karolinska Institute approximately three years ago. In this regard, I represented the 8th term lecturers in all preparatory meetings and organised the set-up of the required multiple choice questions (MCQ) and oral structured clinical examination (OSCE). I wrote many MCQ questions and OSCE stations for this examination.
I recently joined a committee representing Umeå University in discussions with other medical schools in Sweden about developing medical education system. One important goal in this regard is to develop a realistic entrustable professional activities (EPA) model that can be incorporated with the current syllabus of the given medical school.
On 1st January 2019, I was appointed as a Full Professor and Consultant at the Department of Surgical and Perioperative Sciences, Umeå University, full-time employment (33% teaching, 33% research and 33% clinical).
Since 1st January, I have been a Full Professor and Consultant at the Department of Clinical Science and Education, Karolinska University, full-time employment (50% teaching & research and 50% clinical).
I have done many important courses in leadership that have had great impact on my leadership knowledge and experience. "
