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:
“Men talk, but rarely about anything personal. Recent research on friendship ... has shown that male relationships are based on shared activities: men tend to do things together rather than simply be together.... Female friendships, particularly close friendships, are usually based on self-disclosure, or on talking about intimate aspects of their lives.”
—Bettina Arndt (20th century)
“There is a delicate balance of putting yourself last and not being a doormat and thinking of yourself first and not coming off as selfish, arrogant, or bossy. We spend the majority of our lives attempting to perfect this balance. When we are successful, we have many close, healthy relationships. When we are unsuccessful, we suffer the natural consequences of damaged and sometimes broken relationships. Children are just beginning their journey on this important life lesson.”
—Cindy L. Teachey. “Building Lifelong Relationships—School Age Programs at Work,” Child Care Exchange (January 1994)
