Marie Wilhsson serves as Assistant Head of Department and Associate Professor of Nursing within the Department of Health Sciences at the University of Skövde's School of Health Sciences. Her academic leadership extends to coordinating advanced-level nursing courses while maintaining an active research portfolio focused on school health services.
Her research interests concentrate on critical areas of child and adolescent health, including school nursing interventions for gender-diverse youth, violence exposure identification systems, sexual health promotion, and digital health applications. Wilhsson employs primarily qualitative methodologies to explore school nurses' experiences in managing complex student health issues, with particular emphasis on trust-building dynamics and contextual health promotion frameworks.
Analysis of her recent publications reveals strong thematic continuity in school-based health interventions, demonstrating evolving methodological sophistication from early conceptual models of student stress coping (2016-2017) to current mixed-methods approaches examining digital health tools and violence prevention systems. Her work consistently bridges theoretical health promotion frameworks with practical school nursing applications.
Wilhsson actively contributes to the Digital HEAlth Research (DHEAR) group through multiple ongoing projects including studies on school nurses' supervision experiences (2025-2026), youth violence prevalence in Skaraborg (2025-2026), and mobile-based alcohol intervention tools (2025-2026). Her grant portfolio reflects substantial collaboration with regional healthcare systems and interdisciplinary research teams.
She maintains leadership within the academic community through doctoral thesis supervision and course coordination responsibilities, while her research directly informs evidence-based school nursing practices across Sweden. The DHEAR research environment provides critical infrastructure for her ongoing investigations into digital health solutions for child and adolescent wellbeing.
