Since 2020, the French Institutes of Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Norway, and Sweden have annually awarded a prize to five young researchers. The French Institute Nordic Award (FINA) promotes scientific cooperation on a mutual theme of interest to the five countries and France. This year (2024), the theme is Digital Health.<br/><br/>The laureates are invited to participate in a week-long scientific trip to Caen and Paris. During this trip, they will be introduced to promising research and development initiatives within France’s strategy to accelerate Digital Health by 2030. This program will enable these young researchers from Nordic countries to exchange ideas and potentially initiate collaborations with a variety of French stakeholders, including universities and research centers, hospitals, health authorities, and national coordination initiatives.
