We're very proud to be a part of Precision Immunotherapy Alliance, "PRIMA"
PRIMA is a new Center of Excellence (CoE) / Sentre for fremragende forskning (SFF) recently founded by The Research Council of Norway. The new center is one of nine CoEs, and has received NOK 155 million in funding.
The alliance is made up of seven research group leaders from Oslo University Hospital and the University of Oslo. We look forward to working together with the excellent team of researchers on developing a cancer treatment that can be used to cure several forms of cancer. The goal is to create a set of tailor-made therapy cells in order for it to be possible to handpick the form of treatment that best suits the individual patient.
Congratulations to the project leaders: Karl-Johan Malmberg, Johanna Olweus and the entire team: Ludvig A Munthe, Fridtjof Lund-Johansen, June Myklebust, Jan Terje Andersen and our group leader Emma Haapaniemi.
