Karolinska in Stockholm
- Medical centre of excellence

Stockholm, home to the Nobel Prize, has a long tradition of sophisticated research and leading edge competence. In the medical area this is most clearly reflected in the close collaboration between the Karolinska University Hospital, one of Europe’s leading university hospitals, and Karolinska Institutet, one of the largest medical universities in Europe. Each year, the Nobel Assembly at Karolinska Institutet awards the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine.
