Sahlgrenska Academy

The Faculty of Medicine at the University of Gothenburg. Research and education in medicine, odontology, and health and care sciences - always in close contact with practical care.

Here, you will find research at the forefront. Successful research areas include ageing, person-centred care, cancer, metabolism, neuroscience, obstetrics, odontology, vaccines, and virology.

Our research has historically led to great success, such as dental implants, beta-blockers for heart failure, and the world's most-sold pharmaceutical, Losec. We are particularly proud of our Nobel laureate, Arvid Carlsson, who developed his discoveries about dopamine's important role in the brain at our campus.

We are open to collaborations that help us see new perspectives and find better ways to prevent and treat illness.
