At this seminar PhD-students, postdocs and Master?s students at UiO and NMBU had the opportunity to create networks outside academia. The response for the event was overwhelming and it was fully booked in a short time.
LMI and partners welcome you to join this day where we will present the Norwegian life science ecosystem, discuss the importance of collaboration, look at global success stories and challenge Norwegian decision and policy makers on their ambition and execution.
For all participants of the conference.
The main event of Oslo Life Science 2018 where we showcased our best interdisciplinary research and let international speakers give us new insight in how to increase value creation from basic research. And we got to hear what the government expects from the life science community in the Oslo region. See pictures and watch videos from the event.
As the third country in Europe, Norway has established the innovation programme SPARK based on Stanford SPARK. At this kick-off UiO showcased the first Norwegian SPARK teams – SPARKees. See pictures and watch videos from the event.
