Health and technology research projects at OsloMet have received a total of three million kroner. The projects range from research on cold baths and saunas to prevent stress and mental ailments to the treatment of phantom pain in people with amputation.
Common to these twelve projects is their basis in technology and their promotion collaboration to find solutions for patients and healthcare personnel.
