I work clinically as a sports & exercise physiotherapist in Stockholm, Sweden. I have been involved in the Swedish Athletics Federation since 1997 and have been head physiotherapist at several international athletics (track and field) championships and at the Olympic Games. I am also currently a medical coordinator at the Swedish Athletics Federation. I am a guest researcher at the Athletics Research Center (ARC) at Linköping University. My research is practice-based and involves direct collaboration with those involved in sports. My research aims to explore and create models that help to improve sustainability in sport and the health of sporting participants. My current areas of research include epidemiology, the prevention of overuse injuries and strategies for knowledge transfer, i.e. how to make sports research more available to practice. Show less
