It addresses a concrete intervention – the Public Health Project in Kindergartens in Grorud Valley, a suburb to the Norwegian capitol Oslo – whic...
Norske forskningsmiljøer har tradisjonelt vært viktige leverandører av kunnskap for politikkutvikling. Det siste tiåret har i tillegg en rekke seksjoner og avdelinger for utredning og analyse i statsforvaltningen vokst frem. Men forskere og utredere i forvaltningen er særlig utsatt når det gjelder uavhengighet og vitenskapelig kvalitetssikring, for...

reference to the Tower of Babel account in The Book of Genesis. Raising the question whether biobank regulations should be
harmonized, we distinguish between three types of research biobanks: local, regional, and internat...
From the new imperialism of the second half of the nineteenth century to the biocolonialism at the beginning of the twentieth
century, expansionist policies went from annexing land to annexing life. Arguing that the panacea of human ailments professed
to be achievable by unlimited expansion into the molecular space of human life comes with a yet un...
