In this working paper, we have used national publication databases in the Nordic countries to compare research in social sciences and the humanities in the higher education institutions. The findings are based on a data material that does not meet the same standards as the data used in the new NordForsk report Comparing Research at Nordic Higher Education Institutions – Covering the years 1999-2014, where Nordic higher education institutions are compared based on publication data from Clarivate Analytics’ Web of Science.
Magasinet presenterer nye og eksisterende prosjekter innenfor bioøkonomi, grønn vekst, nøytronforskning, helse, kjønnsforskning, samfunnssikkerhet, eScience og e-infrastruktur, samt samarbeid mellom Nordens statistikkbyråer.
The report gives an overview of the existing legislation in the Nordic countries regarding the collection and re-use of health-related personal data in medical research. It also looks at how ethical review is integrated in the regulatory frameworks, including in the European general data protection regulation that will come into force May 2018.
Men mange almindelige migrationsrelaterede fordomme og ineffektivitet i integrationen af migrantbefolkningen skyldes manglen på solid, afprøvet og tilgængelig videnskabelig forskning.
Derfor vil studiet af migration – ved at udvikle grundforskning og ved at skaffe nye metodologiske tilgange og interventioner korrekt – kunne medvirke til at tilvejebringe et bedre vidensgrundlag for beslutningstagere samt fremme en mere informeret befolkning som helhed. Dette er det store formål, som denne oversigtsrapport søger at lette.

It's ten years since NordForsk was established and this milestone is marked by an anniversary insert looking back at the early days and important events that have shaped NordForsk to the organisation it is today.
