Dear all,

University of Bergen and Helse Bergen are members of four European research infrastructures in the field of translational medicine: BBMRI, ELIXIR, EATRIS, and ECRIN. The four research infrastructures work in parallel, providing complementary services to researchers in the field of biomedical sciences and support the development of personalized medicine and new treatments.

We invite researchers to learn more about each research infrastructure and how they can help you with a focus on services that support funding applications. The national coordinators of each research infrastructure are available for 1:1 meeting where you can ask specific questions regarding your project or get more information. Here is the registration page and agenda also included a QR-code for the poster (registration). Enclosed is the invitation.

The MSCA staff exchange action funds short-term international and inter-sectoral exchanges of staff members involved in research and innovation activities of participating organisations. The aim is to develop sustainable collaborative projects between different organisations from the academic and non-academic sectors, based in Europe and beyond.

The webinar wil be held on 14 December 09:30 – 11:00, and with contribution from the Research Executive Agency (REA) and a testimony from SINTEF, who is work package leader in the project “DISCO2 STORE”. The call itself has a deadline on 8. March 2023.

Why take part in the webinar? Well for one, the success rates have been encouraging at 25ish %. The action is completely bottom-up and open to all disciplines, and is mainly focused on the mobility and the transfer of knowledge. The diversity in projects is big, and although traditionally dominated by projects within the realms of the engineering panel, projects from the SSH and life sciences are most welcome. This scheme simply allows for fruitful collaborations with colleagues in other sectors and parts of the world.

Time/Place:  14 Dec 09:30 – 11:00; Digital: Live streaming, video recording will be available

About prof. Blom’s research

Anna Blom received basic education in biochemistry and molecular biology from the Jagiellonian University in Krakow, Poland. Her PhD studies in medical and physiological chemistry were focused on bikunin-containing proteins, plasma protease inhibitors also involved in organisation of extracellular matrix. After defending PhD thesis in Uppsala in 1997 she moved to Lund University for a postdoctoral training with Prof. Dahlbäck who is expert translational coagulation researcher. Supported by long-term funding for salary from Swedish Research Council she established independent research group focused on studies of the complement system, a crucial part of innate immunity. In 2005 she was appointed a full professor of medical protein chemistry at Lund University. She has contributed significantly to understanding the role of complement in various pathologies such as infections, rheumatic diseases, cancer and immune deficiencies. Most recently she showed a role of complement in diabetes and contributed to discovery of a novel field of intracellular complement. Her research was recognized by award of large grants such as Wallenberg Scholar from the Wallenberg Foundation (Sweden) and Distinguished Investigator within Endocrinology from the Novonordisk Foundation (Denmark).
