About Matilda Liljedahl

I have a PhD in medical education (2016, Karolinska Institutet) and am an associate professor of health professions education (2024, Sahlgrenska Academy). I am currently working as a resident in oncology (2021-, Sahlgrenska University hospital) and hold a position as clinical research fellow (2024-, Sahlgrenska University Hospital).

I have supervised one doctoral student to successful completion as principal supervisor (Yvonne Carlsson) and served as co-supervisor for two doctoral students (Agnes Elmberger and Karolina Larsson). I am currently the principal supervisor for one doctoral student (Erik Myrberg) and co-supervisor for four doctoral students (Anette Eriksson, Malin Rydholm, Maja Drakenberg Danese, and Johan Edgar).

Research gruop Health Professions Education

I lead a research group in health professions education were we explore learning, education, communication and patient perspectives in health care. We primarily utilize qualitative methods and have experience of, among other methods, ethnography, phenomenography, interview- and observational studies. 

The group comprises of:

  • Matilda Liljedahl, MD, PhD, associate professor

  • Karolina Larsson, MD, PhD

  • Anna Öfverholm, MD, PhD

  • Anna Perman, RN, PhD

  • Yvonne Carlsson, MD, PhD Student

  • Erik Myrberg, MD, PhD Student

  • Malin Rydholm, MD PhD Student

  • Elisabet Öhrn, Professor, Patient representative

Occasionally, the group also include residents who are performing their scientific project. We collaborate with many researchers at the University of Gothenburg and other universities. 

For the group and other researchers/doctoral students, I arrange a seminar serie in qualitative methods with approximatly eight meetings yearly.
