A collaborative network to bring together the future leaders of life science and molecular medicine in Sweden.
The National Molecular Medicine Fellows Program is an official collaboration, co-funded by a 9 million SEK grant from the Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation. The aim is to promote scientific interactions and technological networking among the more than 100 SciLifeLab and WCMM group leaders that are being recruited to the centers. These group leaders have been trained in many of the best universities and laboratories in the world, and represent a major addition of cutting-edge expertise and talent to the Swedish life science sector.
Within the scope of the collaboration, annual scientific meetings are arranged, giving the opportunity to create a unique and close network across the five sites, the national life science infrastructures, as well as the health care regions across the country. The effort also includes co-funding for joint projects or research visits.
Extended funding with SEK 600 million to WCMM and SciLifeLab
Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation launches a new research initiative where SEK 3.7 billion goes to funding for life science. The life science initiative consists of two parts, where one part is a completely new national investment in computer-driven life science with SEK 3.1 billion over twelve years. The second…
