Since 2002, manager of Prolingua Translation Services. Major experience in patent applications, covering medicine, pharmacology, chemistry, genetics, microbiology, general biology, technology, and general subjects. Translates from English to Swedish and from Swedish to English.

My ambition is professional translation and reliable on-time delivery.

Previous and present occupation, and competence:

-In November 1979 appointed associate professor at the University of Agricultural Sciences in Uppsala, Sweden, with research, teaching and PhD-student supervision in forest genetics as main subject.

-Deputy head of department at department of forest genetics  2000-12-01.

-Acting head of department (Prefekt) at Department of forest genetics, SLU, (1984-07-01 -- 1985-06-30 and 1988-06-01 -- 1988-06-30)

-Head of department (Prefekt) at Department of forest genetics, SLU,

(1991-03-01 -1995-10-31)

-Since 2002 involved in translating scientific text from English to Swedish or Swedish to English, through ProLingua Translation Services.

-One full year of advanced English studies in my basic academic training, followed by extensive experience (30+ years) in international scientific cooperation and by teaching genetics in English, in Sweden and abroad.

Professional training and employment:

1972 Bachelor’s degree, including English language, Genetics and Botany.

1978 PhD in genetics, University of Umea, Sweden. Thesis: Allozymes in population genetic studies of Norway spruce (Picea abies K.).

1979 Employed as associate professor at the Swedish University of Agricultural sciences, Department of Forest Genetics, Uppsala.

2002 Starting ProLingua Translation Service. Translating English to Swedish or Swedish to English. Main body of translations has been English patent applications translated into Swedish - primarily patents in medicine, pharmacology, technology, microbiology, genetics, chemistry and other general natural science subjects. Translations of general English, economy and law are also accepted.
