This year, the Dean's traditional summer greeting was held as a live transmission on Zoom, meaning that the audience could also ask questions afterwards. Even if you did not take part, you can still see and hear everything whenever you wish.

Among the topics Dean Lars Bo Nielsen talks about are:

  • The achievement of holding teaching and exams in connection with the shutdown
  • The faculty's virologists and epidemiologists’ role as experts in the media
  • A significant increase in attracting external funding
  • Internationalisation of the teaching environment at Health
  • Twice as many summer schools from next year
  • Collaboration with the Circle U universities
  • New norms for recruitment
  • Diversity and gender equality in research
