Congratulations to the award winners of the Western Norway Regional Health Authority's research awards that were awarded on Thursday evening at the Western Norway Regional Health Authority's research conference.

The other awards went to researchers affiliated with K1: The prize for young researchers went to Øyvind Eikrem and the research prize to Christian Beisland.

And Christmas is approaching! On December 12th at 1 p.m., everyone from K2 is invited to a small Christmas gathering with gingerbread and mulled wine on the 5th floor of the lab building, I hope as many as possible want to join.

Have a really good weekend!
