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
