Danish-American Partnership Promotes Melanoma Pain Research

With the help from Innovation Center Denmark, Silicon Valley a new colaboration between Danish and Californian Universities and Hospitals has been established. The area concerns melanoma research and the pain resulting from the treatment of melanoma.

"We welcome the collaboration and look forward to receive gifted students and researchers from Denmark,” says Karin Lottrup Petersen, a scientist at CPMCRI and an Associate Professor at UCSF. "The students will benefit from being able to work with some of the best researchers in the world, and the researchers will benefit from being exposed to the passion and fresh ideas that the students bring to their work.”

Besides the UCSF participants include the Rigshospitalet - Copenhagen University Hospital - the University of Aarhus, Aalborg University and California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute (CPMCRI) – part of the Sutter Health network.
