Stavanger University Hospital - Research Programs

Research Programs

The main purpose for the research activity at Stavanger University Hospital is to improve patient treatment. One of the objectives in the strategic plan for research is that Stavanger University Hospital shall consolidate and develop its position as University Hospital. Research is an integral part of the hospital's departments and shall be at a high international level. Through cooperation with regional participants we attempt to ensure that the research results with commercial potential reach the market. SUS has entered into a partnership with MD Anderson Cancer Center i Houston. The hospital also cooperates with Stavanger Helseforskning and Hjertelaget Research Foundation who both performs and administrates clinical research.

Famous quotes containing the words research and/or programs:

    The great question that has never been answered, and which I have not yet been able to answer, despite my thirty years of research into the feminine soul, is “What does a woman want?” [Was will das Weib?]
    Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)

    Government ... thought [it] could transform the country through massive national programs, but often the programs did not work. Too often they only made things worse. In our rush to accomplish great deeds quickly, we trampled on sound principles of restraint and endangered the rights of individuals.
    Gerald R. Ford (b. 1913)
