Uppsala Life is a conference at Uppsala Castle in Sweden where local as well as national life science stakeholders and government meet to discuss challenges and opportunities. On site in October 2019 was the Swedish government’s national life science coordinator Dr Jenni Nordborg, the secretary general of Forska!Sverige (Swedish research), the mayor of Uppsala as well as representatives from university, hospitals, SMEs and industry such as GE Healthcare and Thermo Fisher Scientific.
Dr Caroline Dahl from RISE invited researchers of the Institute of Solid State Physics, University of Latvia (ISSP UL) to participate in the event to get an overview of the Swedish life-science ecosystem, and to present the Institute. RISE and ISSP UL met up at the conference and shared a joint, side-by-side presentation space to emphasize our international collaboration.
