The Trøndelag health study (HUNT)

The Trøndelag Health Study (The HUNT Study) is one of the largest health studies ever performed. It is a unique database of questionnaire data, clinical measurements and samples from a county’s inhabitants since 1984.

The HUNT Study is well-known in the county of Trøndelag, with high participation rates, providing a good base for further health surveys in the county and an excellent research environment.

Today, HUNT Research Centre has a database with information on 250,000 people, and has been certified in conformity with NS-EN ISO 9001:2015 since 2011.

The most recent data gathering for the main part of HUNT was completed in 2019, but research groups are still involved in gathering new data and samples in sub groups throughout the county to develop The HUNT Study further.
