Seminar Series
In our monthly Seminar Series, The HUNT Center for Molecular and Clinical Epidemiology Seminar Series brings together a diverse array of scientific interests on the NTNU campus to discuss cutting edge biomedical research with international scientific leaders.
Scheduled for the last Monday of each month, the series includes a one hour scientific seminar open to everyone and a 45 minute mentoring meeting between the visiting scientist and NTNU trainees/young researchers, emphasizing professional development and interdisciplinary collaboration.

Journal Club
The aim of our Journal Club is to give researchers and students an opportunity to read and discuss timely articles within their field of interest or any interesting research coming from interdisciplinary domains. While we have named it the Statistical Genetic Journal Club, we welcome papers from related topics.
Presenting participants may choose a relevant article and present the main figures, tables, and take aways, while leaving time for group discussion of methodology, interpretations, and limitations. Other participants will be provided the article in advance in order to familiarize themselves and prepare for the discussion.
Meetings generally take place on the last Thursday of every month from 13:00-14:00 CET unless otherwise announced. Participation via Teams is provided for those unable to join in Øya Helsehus 1st floor conference room (ØHM11).
