Research
The overall objective for the Department is to promote basic biomedical research that bring new knowledge on the mechanisms and complexity of human health and disease, from the molecular level to cells, tissues and organs. The research activties are organized thematically into research groups focusing on biological processes such as the cellular renovation system autophagy, host-microbe interactions and the roles of endothelial cells in the liver, mechanisms for tumour formation and tumour progression, immune and autoimmune responses, cardiovascular diseases, and identification of targets for future diagnostic and therapeutic tools. The research projects are interdisiplinary and include both national and international collaboration partners. Researchers at the Department chairs and participates in projects funded by the European Union, the Research Council of Norway, the Norwegain Cancer Society and the Health Authorities of Northern Norway.
