Attracting Kristian Pietras to Lund is a feather in the cap of both Lund University, where he will be employed, and Medicon Village, where he will be based. The investment has been made possible by an ‘impact investment’ of SEK 10 million from Professor Göran Grosskopf and his wife Birgitta.
“This appointment is one of the many important building blocks of the investment in life science research in Lund”, says Göran Grosskopf. “The recruitment of Kristian Pietras, who specialises in research on the boundary between basic research and clinical research, is perfectly suited to Medicon Village and its excellent clinical research facilities. We now hope to be able to attract more researchers in the field so that the successful research that forms the cornerstone for Medicon Village can rapidly be expanded further.”
