Collaboration is key to achieving the best results.I have extensive experience in knowledge development, learning, organizing and moderating events, as well as leading projects on both national and international levels.My expertise includes:* Educator primarily in Automation (production), Manufacturing Technology, Laser Welding (certification courses), 3D printing in metal, and modern physics.* Networks: I collaborate with manufacturing industries in fields such as medicine, automotive, aerospace, tools, and infrastructure (e.g., bridges and hydrogen storage). I am the Chair of the Swedish Laser Group (part of the Swedish Welding Commission).I see myself as an analyst, seeking to understand mechanisms and finding ways to utilize or mitigate them. As an Associate Professor in laser material processing, my areas of expertise include:* Handheld Laser Welding (HHLW)* Laser-Arc Hybrid Welding (LAHW)* Industrial Laser Welding (LW)* Laser Cutting (LC)* Laser Surface Processing (Laser cladding/overlay welding)* Additive Manufacturing, e.g., metal 3D printing (PBF-LB/M and DED)Current h-index of 22, with over 80 scientific publications (ranking among the top 2% most cited globally in my field).
