SFF – Norwegian Centres of Excellence

There are two active Centres of Excellence (SFF) at Oslo University Hospital with the University of Oslo as the host. The centers are multi-year initiatives under the auspices of the Norwegian Research Council. NORMENT is funded under SFF III (2013-2023). CanCell is funded under SFF IV (2017-2027).

NORMENT: Norwegian Centre for Mental Disorders Research: Norment is a Centre of Excellence funded by the Norwegian Research Council. At NORMENT we strive to find answers to why some people develop perceptual disturbances, delusions, deep depressions or elated, manic phases.

CanCell - Centre for Cancer Cell Reprogramming CanCell is a research centre that aims at uncovering the “Achilles’ heels” of cancer cells and target these for reprogramming cancer cells into harmless cells.
