The Joint Committee of the

Nordic Medical Research Councils

The Joint Committee of the Nordic Medical Research Councils (NOS-M) is a collaborating body for the Nordic research councils that finance medical research.

NOS-M aims to coordinate and promote medical research in the Nordic countries, to monitor its progress, and to facilitate information exchange among the countries. The Committee also aims to promote concrete, collaborative Nordic projects in medical research.

NOS-M conducts two annual meetings, which rotate between the member countries. Observers from NordForsk, the Nordic Council of Ministers, Science Europe Medical Sciences Committee, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are invited to take part in NOS-M meetings and activities. The NOS-M secretariat is hosted by NordForsk.

”By joining forces, the Nordics could become a key player in personalised medicine.”
