My main research interests are 1) the use of financial and management accounting information in experts' decision-making, and 2) the role of accounting in control of professional work, in particular within healthcare and higher education.
One of my on-going interests involves the study of how professional capital market actors use and make sense of financial reporting information. In this work I collaborate with Dr. Anja Hjelström (SIR, EY) and Assistant Professors Tomas Hjelström (SSE) and Carl Henning Christner (SSE) as well as Associate Professor Per Åhblom (NTNU, Trondheim). Parts of this research has received funding from the Swedish Research Council/Vetenskapsrådet and has also been supported by the Swedish Enterprise Accounting Group within the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise.
My long-standing interest in the functioning of the healthcare sector is currently pursued in work that I do with Professor Hans Kjellberg (Department of Marketing and Strategy, SSE) on the valuation and price formation in markets for in-patient pharmaceutical treatments for cancer. This project was funded by Riksbankens Jubileumsfond.
