V\u00e6r ogs\u00e5 oppmerksom p\u00e5 muligheten for \u00e5 s\u00f8ke p\u00e5 innovative prosjekter gjennom Helse Vest. Senere denne m\u00e5neden har vi ogs\u00e5 frister for SFI-s\u00f8knader, og med flere forskere fra K2 som er involvert i disse s\u00f8knadene, \u00f8nsker jeg \u00e5 \u00f8nske s\u00f8kere der lykke til!<\/p>\n<p>Som instituttleder P\u00e5l diskuterte nylig da rektor for UiB bes\u00f8kte det medisinske fakultetet for flere uker siden, utgjorde eksterne midler hentet inn av K2-forskere omtrent 15% av den totale eksterne finansieringen tiltrukket av UiB i 2018. Det er en utrolig statistikk for ett institutt, og demonstrerer hva som kan oppn\u00e5s n\u00e5r topp moderne fasiliteter for universitetet og de innovative sinnene til v\u00e5re forskere kombineres med det kliniske potensialet til Haukeland universitetssykehus (HUS). Med t\u00f8ffere tider fremover for UiB, som f\u00f8lge av avtagende finansiering fra regjeringen, vil vektleggingen p\u00e5 \u00e5 tiltrekke ekstern finansiering, s\u00e6rlig fra NFR og EU, intensiveres. Resultatet er at vi kontinuerlig m\u00e5 utvikle v\u00e5rt samarbeid med HUS slik at forskningen v\u00e5r forblir relevant, konkurransedyktig og nyskapende. Dette vil hjelpe oss godt p\u00e5 vei, men som alltid er detaljene avgj\u00f8rende &#8211; spesielt budsjettdetaljer, slik mange av dere med translasjonsprosjekter vil ha opplevd. Utfordringen her vil v\u00e6re \u00e5 ha st\u00f8rre fleksibilitet og dynamikk i hvordan HUS og UiB samhandler, og at de kan finne et symbiotisk og synergistisk forhold for ytterligere \u00e5 pleie og ikke hindre dette unikt innovative forskningsmilj\u00f8et p\u00e5 campus Haukeland. Dermed vil jeg oppfordre lederne v\u00e5re b\u00e5de p\u00e5 universitetet og sykehuset til \u00e5 finne brukbare l\u00f8sninger rundt disse utfordringene for \u00e5 forbedre forskningsmilj\u00f8et og dra nytte av fakultetets finansiering.<\/p>\n<p>Til slutt vil jeg rette oppmerksomheten mot innovasjonsuka OPP (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovasjonsukenopp.no\/om-opp\/\">https:\/\/www.innovasjonsukenopp.no\/om-opp\/<\/a>) som starter neste mandag 16. september. OPP er en feiring av innovat\u00f8rer! M\u00e5let er \u00e5 inspirere folk til \u00e5 utforske mulighetene innen innovasjon gjennom arrangementer over hele v\u00e5r region, med sikte p\u00e5 \u00e5 koble gr\u00fcndere, samarbeidspartnere og investorer. OPP er dermed et flott sted hvis du har en god ide du vil diskutere, hvis du vil l\u00e6re mer om spesifikke temaer eller hvis du vil l\u00e6re mer om innovasjon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;[:en]<a href=\"http:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/files\/2018\/03\/picture-9829-1476712132.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-13785 alignleft\" src=\"http:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/files\/2018\/03\/picture-9829-1476712132.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"217\" height=\"271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/files\/2018\/03\/picture-9829-1476712132.jpg 400w, https:\/\/k2info.w.uib.no\/files\/2018\/03\/picture-9829-1476712132-240x300.jpg 240w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 217px) 100vw, 217px\" \/><\/a>With the Helse Vest deadlines just around the corner, I would firstly like to wish anyone who is applying the best of luck with their respective applications. Also, please be aware of the possibility of applying for innovative projects through Helse Vest. Later this month we also have deadlines for SFI applications and with several researchers from K2 involved in these applications, Id like to wish applicants there the best of luck!<\/p>\n<p>As institute leader P\u00e5l discussed recently when the Rector of UiB was visiting the medical faculty a number of weeks ago, external funds brought in by K2 researchers accounted for approximately 15% of the total external funding attracted to UiB in 2018. That is an incredible statistic for one institute, and demonstrates what can be achieved when state-of-the-art core facilities of the university and the innovative minds of our researchers combine with the clinical potential of Haukeland University Hospital (HUS). With tougher times ahead for UiB, resultant of dwindling funding from the government, the emphasis on attracting external funding, particularly from NFR and EU, will intensify. Resultantly, we need to continuously evolve our collaboration with HUS so that our research remains relevant, competitive and innovative. This will get us some of the way, but as always the devil is in the details \u2013 particularly budget details, as many of you with translational projects will have experienced.\u00a0 The challenge here will be to have greater flexibility and dynamism in how HUS and UiB interact, and that they can find a symbiotic and synergistic relationship to further nurture and not hinder this uniquely innovative research environment at campus Haukeland. Thus, I would urge our leaders both at the university and hospital to find workable solutions around these challenges for the betterment of the research environment and benefit of the faculty\u2019s purse strings.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, I would like to draw your attention to innovation week OPP (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.innovasjonsukenopp.no\/om-opp\/\">https:\/\/www.innovasjonsukenopp.no\/om-opp\/<\/a>) that starts next Monday 16<sup>th<\/sup>of September. OPP is a celebration of innovators! The aim is to to inspire people to explore the possibilities within innovation through events all over our region, aiming to connect entrepreneurs, collaborators and investors. OPP is thus a great place if you have a good idea you want to discuss, if you want to learn more about specific topics or if you want to learn more about innovation.[:]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[:no]Med fristene til Helse Vest rett rundt hj\u00f8rnet, vil jeg i f\u00f8rste omgang \u00f8nske alle som s\u00f8ker lykke til med sine respektive s\u00f8knader.
