Short Biography

I have worked in Sweden as general practitioner for 20 years. During these years I engaged in research with topics usually found within primary health care. The first area of interest was upper respiratory tract infections with focus on the sore throat. A consequence was further research about the clinical value of diagnostic tests. Example of other areas of research interest during these years has been whiplash-associated disorders, doctor’s behaviour, assessment of the consultation, low back pain and the transition from childhood to adulthood.

I have been associated professor at the University of Gothenburg Sweden since 2007. Since 1st of June 2011 appointed part time as Collegiate Professor at the same university. Since 1st of February 2012 appointed as Associate Professor in General Practice and Rural Medicine at Cairns Clinical School, School of Medicine and Dentistry, James Cook University, Australia.
