CBH’s new FFA plan was presented

CBH's faculty renewal plan is the distillation of two years of strategic discussions between school management, heads of departments, departmental management groups – and the Faculty Board.

At the CBH Faculty Board meeting on September 30, Mats Jonsson, Deputy Head of School and Head of Faculty Renewal (FFA), presented the plan. Mark Rutland, a member of the board, summarises its contents.

Research

Johan Rockberg honoured by the Novo Nordisk Foundation

Johan Rockberg has been awarded the title of “Distinguished Innovator” by the Novo Nordisk Foundation along with 11 million Swedish kronor in research funding. The money will go towards further development of the gene therapy platform developed by Rockberg’s research team to enable targeted treatment of kidney diseases.

“Chronic kidney disease affects more than 800 million people, and a third of cases are caused by DNA mutations that could be cured with an effective gene therapy,” Rockberg says.
