Facilities
The station is named after the Oslo Innovation Center (Norwegian: Forskningsparken). It serves the northern side of the University of Oslo campus at Blindern. The campus is also served by the light rail station Universitetet Blindern and the rapid transit station Blindern. To the north of the station is Rikshospitalet. The light rail offers transfer service to the hospital, but it is still within walking distance from Forskningsparken. The rapid transit line runs on an elevated section. The light rail station is located directly below the station, on Problemveien. Designed by the architect firm Arkitektskap, both stations are open to the air and have sheds in both directions.
