##  Today's research is tomorrow's better care 

 

Together with the University of Helsinki, we form one of the most active clusters of research and education in Europe. The symbiosis between these two organizations enables the integration of research, education, and healthcare. Many researchers at HUS also hold positions at the University and vice versa. We are participating in many EU-funded research and development projects.

We at HUS pride ourselves on the wide-ranging support services we provide to medical research projects and researchers. The aim of our services is to offer researchers clear and consistent processes.
