The Norwegian Cancer Society's fundraising campaign will kick off on Sunday, March 15, 2026. People all over the country will take part in the most important Sunday walk of the spring to raise money for the cancer cause.
The money raised for the Norwegian Cancer Society's fundraising campaign helps ensure that patients who could benefit from it can receive a genetic test. This could open up new treatments that could extend the lives of more people.
Today, 3 out of 4 people survive cancer. That's twice as many as 50 years ago. Read about recent research breakthroughs and learn what it means for people affected by cancer.

What happens when we meet the people we would rather avoid?
Join us in the heart of the United States, just before the 2024 presidential election. With humor and razor-sharp observations, Kate Pendry explores our own attitudes, political divides and our urge to be "on the right side". The performance is a monologue with a nerve that challenges us to listen, be curious and see the person behind the opinion. Without getting into confrontation.
With a simple yet effective stage design and Pendry's strong presence, Kentucky Daze is more than a performance. It feels like a conversation you don't want to miss. Read more about the performance at dns.no

Dear everyone!
Is there really no one who wants to promote themselves or a good colleague to the faculty's teaching award and/or research award? Within the deadline, there was only 1 proposal for the best PhD work – it's hard to believe that there aren't more who deserved an award! Unfortunately, we in the management do not know everything about everyone, so help us find good candidates we can nominate!
Check my K2nytt editorial from January 23 for the criteria.
The new deadline is Sunday 8.2.
