SciLifeLab at KI
Science for Life Laboratory (SciLifeLab) is an academic collaboration between multiple Swedish universities and distributed national research infrastructure with a distinct focus on health and environmental research. At the core mission of SciLifeLab is to provide technologies facilitating the large-scale analysis of biological processes at the molecular level. SciLifeLab Campus Solna, founded in 2010 as a joint effort by KI, KTH and SU, is the largest SciLifeLab site for cooperation.

Karolinska Institutet, in collaboration with 8 Swedish universities, has been awarded a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions COFUND grant to establish a new national postdoc program called SciLifeLab PULSE (Program for Future Leaders in Life Science). The grant, totaling 6.9 million euros over 5 years, will fund the recruitment of 48 postdocs into both academic and entrepreneurial tracks. A unique aspect of the program will be planned secondments at academic and non-academic partners, aimed at providing specialized training and fostering professional networks. The first call for applications will open in late 2024, with more information to follow soon.
