IRS constitutes a network of dedicated individuals who contribute with a diversity of expertise and skills that extend beyond traditional research environments. We foster relationships and create space for involvement, responsiveness, and a willingness to embrace change.
IRS has a vision that all research environments within individual hospitals are sustainable. Sustainable research environments work purposefully and balancedly based on a set of strategic factors within the given conditions of each hospital.
This vision is realized through the local research leadership at the hospitals developing strategies, goals, and actions based on an assessment of the given conditions and a realistic developmental trend. Such trends could involve growth, breakthrough, stability, or (re)establishment.

The research strategy sets the direction for our work in the years ahead. It is driven by an ambition to strengthen the quality, relevance and international standing of our research. We place particular emphasis on interdisciplinary collaboration, sustainable solutions, and a strong alignment between research, education and the needs of society. With clear objectives for innovation, talent development and knowledge sharing, we provide a framework for research that makes a meaningful impact – locally, nationally and globally.
