Kim Houlind has been Head of Department at IRS since May 1st 2024.

During his leadership, the number of researchers employed at the 12 hospitals affiliated with the department has grown organically.

Furthermore, efforts have been initiated to expand the regional Master’s programme in Medicine in Esbjerg from 30 to 50 places, effective September 2025, and to establish a Bachelor’s programme at the same location from September 2026.

We wish Kim Houlind all the best in his new role.
