UiO logo

The Institute of Clinical Medicine​ at University of Oslo (UiO) educates and do research in all clinical disciplines. The institute is responsible for all practical patient-oriented teaching of medical students and coordinates five out of eight modules at the Professional Study in Medicine. Research is conducted at the institute within all the major disease groups. The research ranges from patient-focused clinical research to molecular biological studies of disease processes and testing of new technological equipment for diagnostics and treatment.

NTNU logo

NTNU is an international oriented university with headquarters in Trondheim. NTNU has a main profile in science and technology. 

ProCardio collaborate with two research centers at NTNU

  1. Centre for Innovative Ultrasound Solutions (CIUS)

    The Centre for Innovative Ultrasound Solutions for health care, maritime, and oil & gas (CIUS) brings academia and industry together to address needs and challenges across all three sectors.
  2. K.G. Jebsen Center for Genetic Epidemiology

    The overall aim of the K.G. Jebsen Center for Genetic Epidemiology is to better understand human health and disease by studying genomic variation in populations. The center primarily works on the translational axis between population-based and laboratory-based research.

WIthin ProCardio NTNU provides

Knowledge:

  • Acknowledged as a SFI center for Innovative Ultrasound Solutions (CIUS)
  • Extensive know-how on medical imaging technology, in particular ultrasound
  • Expertise in artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms
  • Centre of excellence for translational medical research at the interface of epidemiology, genetics, statistics, bioinformatics and systems biology

Resources:

  • Extensive databases with follow up echocardiographic studies and outcome data
  • Computational infrastructure to train and run resource-intensive AI algorithms
  • Databases on genetic markers to be coupled with cardiac imaging in HUNT database and its digital infrastructure, and also a substantial number of other omics data such as NMR-based metabolomics, CVD related protein arrays, transcriptomics and other targeted protein biomarkers
