By bringing these researchers closer to WCMM, the centre continues to strengthen the clinical research and simultaneously improves the collaboration possibilities between clinical researchers and basic scientists, both in Linköping and nationally.

Being a WCMM fellow means being part of a national and international network of leading researchers in molecular medicine. Fellows gain access to resources, infrastructure, and support to develop their research, as well as opportunities to participate in seminars, workshops, and collaborations both within and beyond their home institution. For clinical fellows, it also provides the opportunity to combine clinical work with research – a central aspect of WCMM’s mission to bring science closer to the patient.

About WCMM

WCMM at Linköping University (LiU) was created in 2015 as a joint effort between Knut and Alice Wallenberg Foundation, Linköping University and Health care institutions constituting Region Östergötland. The aim of our center is to explore the interface between medicine and technology, an area with large potential for in modern health care. The collaboration between researchers at the Faculty of Science and Engineering and the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences as well as at Linköping University Hospital has already resulted in established collaborations in the areas of imaging-diagnostics, bio-engineering and bio-materials.
