Dear all,
A team of Swedish ethnologists has a new open access publication that may be of interest to you:
Öhlander, M., Wolanik Boström, K. and Pettersson, H., 2020. Knowledge Transfer Work: A Case of Internationally Mobile Medical Professionals. Nordic Journal of Migration Research, 10(2), pp.36–49. DOI: http://doi.org/10.33134/njmr.136
This study is a part of the research project ‘What is the use of internationalization for transfer of knowledge and professional status? A case of highly skilled international returners in the medical field’, financed by the Marcus & Marianne Wallenberg Foundation.
Best wishes,
Maja

Dear all,
Below is the message by Brigitte Suter that for some reason bounced back earlier:
Dear all
I’d like to draw your attention on two new publications on highly-skilled migrants and their families.
1. Suter, Brigitte and Cangià, Flavia (2020) Time and Family on the Move: ‘Accompanying Partners’ in Geographical Mobility, Time and Society, DOI: 10.1177/0961463X19897431<https://www.researchgate.net/deref/http%3A%2F%2Fdx.doi.org%2F10.1177%2F0961…>
1. Suter, Brigitte and Åkesson, Lisa (2020) Contemporary European Emigration – Situating Integration in New Destinations, London: Routledge.
Important news: This book is made available for seven days of free access between now and the 14th of June. After the trial those who have signed up for the free access can choose to purchase the eBook at the special price of £10 / $15. You’ll be able to find the book if you search on the site here: https://tfstore.kortext.com/
Best wishes, and stay safe,
Brigitte
Initiatives beyond sharing info on new publications are welcome. Zoom seems to be a reliable tool for seminars, so if there is a wish to organise a feedback session or a conversation on any issue pertaining to research on highly skilled migrants, please let me know.
I hope everyone is healthy and coping,
Maja
