About 

Since its foundation in 1972 the Department has played an important role in managing the medical school in Northern Norway, and in education of young researchers and various health professionals in biomedicine, providing relevant research-based knowledge and stimulate to innovative and translational activities.  The Department has an internationally faculty with around 200 employees, that each year teaches several hundred students in basic biomedicine topics. The department manages biomedical and translational research projects, and offers high-quality advanced infrastructure platforms on molecular imaging and flow cytometry (KAM), proteomics and metabolomics (PRiME). Forensic Genetics centre (RGS) and Centre for new Antibacterial Strategies (CANS) are both organised within the department.

Located at almost 70 degrees north, the Department provides a unique environment for both students and employees. In fact, a number of our employees commute to work on skis during the winter and cycle the same route in summer!
