Research
Our research spans from basic medicine to clinical medicine, public health, and global health, with clear links between basic research, patient-related research, and societal perspectives. The Faculty stands out particularly in women's health, neurodegenerative diseases, priority-setting and ethics in health services, and pioneering work in biomaterials and geriatric medicine.
