The overall aim of the Research Centre for Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the Division of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at the Oslo University Hospital:
To develop and carry out research projects at a high international level in the fields of obstetrics and gynaecology (women’s health research), in collaboration with patient organisations. The focus of our research is:
Digital Women’s Health Innovation
The Research Centre for Obstetrics and Gynaecology (ResCOG) aims at positioning its research group among the best in Norway within the development of public healthcare-integrated digital solutions for women’s health following pregnancy complications. Two of our current research projects are developing and testing home-monitoring applications that will facilitate patient care, empowerment and follow-up outside the hospital. Read more here
