In November 2018, Nordic Trial Alliance launched an open call for proposals for strategic activities aiming to promote Nordic cooperation within clinical research. NTA have now decided to fund three Nordic Strategic Workshops.
Example of activities foreseen were strategic workshops or networking activities with a vision to move Nordic collaboration within a certain area forward and a concrete outcome that will enhance Nordic clinical research cooperation. The funded proposals should target the main aims of NTA.
The three proposals that have been awarded funding are:
- Nordic Monitoring Network, Birgitte Vilsbøll Hansen, Copenhagen University Hospital
- Nordic PedMed (paediatric medicine), Pirkko Lepola, Helsinki University Hospital
- Nordic Myeloma Study Group, Anette Juhl Vangsted, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen
