Research collaborations with Chilean partners

Last year the Academic Collaboration Chile-Sweden (ACCESS) was established. The ACCESS platform aims to facilitate and deepen the academic relations between Chile and Sweden as well as to enable researchers, staff and students to become more connected to each other.

In order to contribute to research excellence, long-term collaborations and increased academic mobility between the two countries, ten research areas were identified for the first seminar as common challenges for both countries.

Within the broader theme of Health Challenges of the Modern Society Related to Aging diseases of the aging brain were identified as a particularly relevant area of research.
See attached Position paper

After an initial meeting in Santiago in Dec 2017, a number of ongoing and planned collaborations focusing on diseases of the aging brain were identified.
