Annual Research Presentations 2024

The Research School in Clinical Medicine at Department of Clinical Medicine, Department of Clinical Science and Haukeland University Hospital organizes an annual gathering where PhD candidates present their research to their doctoral colleagues.

The event consists of two parts: a poster presentation with posters hanging in the lobby of Haukeland University Hospital, and a gathering with oral presentations.

"We want all those who have been to subject-specific seminars or conferences, and have presented their research there to also share their research with their closest colleagues", says Professor Stian Knappskog, the leader of the research school. 

The event ends with an award ceremony for the best posters and the best oral presentations. There is a jury that decides who gets most of the prizes, with the exception of the "People’s Choice Award" which is determined by the audience. See who received the prizes below.

Knappskog thinks it is especially great that the posters are hanging in the public area of the hospital. This way, passers-by can get a glimpse of the research being conducted at the faculty.

"We do this to promote the research our docotral candidates are conductiing, and to challenge them to communicate more", says Knappskog.
