• Winner of the pedagogic prize for Stockholm University’s Faculty of Science, 2013
• In addition to traditional campus teaching, I have built and lead the highly successful distance learning platform: Tellus (www.tellus.geo.su.se). This platform hosts courses totaling 150 ECTS credits, which are read by over 200 students annually.

• I participate actively in the highly successful program of evening courses which are hosted by the Department of Geological Sciences. My main contribution is the evening course: “Earthquakes” which attracts 30–50 students annually
• I have created science communication activities: “World Jigsaw” – a hands-on puzzle used to convey plate tectonics to children aged 10–12 and “Time Train” – an interactive stage play used to convey geological time to children aged 5–9. These activities are used annually at the Gothenburg Science Festival and Geology Day
• I was “Årets Geolog” in 2004 for communicating geology to society.

• In my role as Head of Department (2004–2012), I played a central role in coordinating the move of four departments to the Geosciences Building. This co-localization of Environmental Science, Human Geography, Physical Geography and Quaternary Science, and Geological Sciences has contributed towards creating a dynamic centre for research and teaching in Earth and Environmental Sciences
• I have led the Department of Geological Sciences to become one of the fastest growing departments at Stockholm University in terms of research (from 14 to 22 academic staff members in 5 years), teaching (from 60 to 230 FTEs (HÅP) in 5 years), and economy (from a balance of -6 MSEK to +19 MSEK in 5 years).
