The Institute of Medicine wants to celebrate advances and successful research to inspire everyone who works at the Institute. We are therefore launching a series of lectures, organized by the Research Committee. The idea is to invite and celebrate, for example, the main authors of an influential publication. The authors will describe their work in a popular science style, providing a short background and discussing the novelty of their work and the potential implications for their field. After the presentation we will toast the speakers and mingle with some bubbly and snacks.
All interested at the Institute of Medicine are welcome.
Program
At this event, we will celebrate Jan Hedner, Ludger Grote, Kaj Stenlöf and their colleagues. In a popular scientific talk about sleep apnea and its treatments, they will tell us about the background, work and results related to their recent publication in the Lancet:
