Dear all,

The deadline for submitting abstracts for the Annual Research Presentations by the Research School in Clinical Medicine (January 29–31, 2025) has been extended to December 10, 2023.

Registration link: https://skjemaker.app.uib.no/view.php?id=17860219

This is a great opportunity to share your research and connect with peers. Participants also have the chance to win prizes.

Participation is flexible – you’re not required to attend the entire event. Each presentation will be assigned a specific time slot, and you only need to be present during your designated time but you’re very welcome to join other sessions, too.

We encourage you to apply! For more details, please have a look at the information below.

Best wishes,

Stian, Irit, Kira, Lucia, Lucrezia and Mari.
