Collaboration with Sahlgrenska University Hospital(2009)

Sahlgrenska University Hospital (SU) provides emergency and basic care for the Göteborg region and its 700,000 inhabitants. SU has a highly specialized care in the west region of Sweden, with 1.7 million inhabitants. SU is also the country´s centre for certain specialized care, especially in pediatrics (pediatric heart surgery, incubator care for premature babies, as well as the treatment in pediatric endocrinology). SU is also well known for its successful transplant activity, treatment of cardio-vascular diseases, immunology (research into rejection mechanisms) as well as research into vaccines.

SU was founded in 1997 when three hospitals merged; Mölndal Hospital, Sahlgrenska Hospital and Östra Hospital. SU is one of six teaching hospitals with medical education in Sweden. The hospital provides an infrastructure necessary for teaching and research in cooperation with the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg.
