Organization

​​The Research Council acts as an advisory capacity for the hospital management in research related issues.

​​Each clinical department has a research coordinator. Their role is to coordinate and promote the research in their own department and to ensure a connection to the overall research policy and activities at the hospital.

The Group of Young Researchers (GUF – from Danish) at Hvidovre Hospital is a broad network of researchers who are in the early stages of their research career. GUF embraces graduate students, PhD students, postdocs, and all other personnel employed in clinical positions who are engaged in research.

​​Research is a fundamental and necessary part of the work at Copenhagen University Hospital, Hvidovre and Amager. We have a strong focus on research directly targeted towards improving the treatment and care of our patients in the clinic and after discharge.
