2021

On September 1^st, 11 Oslo-based OSIRIS researchers gathered in Fredrikstad for the first physical workshop in almost 1,5 years.

Despite the challenges of the pandemic, there has been a great deal of activity in OSIRIS during the past year.  

In June 2021, OSIRIS co-organised the annual Eu-SPRI conference. The digital format attracted a record number of more than 400 participants for the three-day online event.  

OSIRIS researcher Gry Høiland is studying how research is used in the Norwegian Labor and Welfare Administration (NAV). 

The Eu-SPRI 2021 conference invites participants to a more critical and reflexive discussion of the linkage between science and innovation. 

OSIRIS is happy to offer a three-year postdoctoral position to carry out longitudinal case studies of how research gets used.

We are happy to announce that the Research Council of Norway (RCN) has decided to fund the OSIRIS Centre for the last period of the centre. An international panel of experts has evaluated the centre and recommended that it continues. This recommendation was adopted by the RCN's board of directors in February this year.

From the 9^th to 11^th of December 2020, the OSIRIS team participated at the Workshop on Medical Innovation (WOMI), which was organised by Maynooth University School of Business and Gothenburg Center for Knowledge-intensive Innovative Ecosystems.
