Organization and Collaboration

The Center for General Practice at Aalborg University was established in 2015 as a collaboration between The Research Unit for General Practice in Aalborg, The Danish Research Foundation for General Practice and The Department of Clinical Medicine, Aalborg University.

We develop our research in collaboration with general practitioners, but also with other health care professionals including medical specialists, private practicing physiotherapists, in addition to the regional and municipal health care departments. We collaborate with foreign- and domestic research environments/educational institutions, as well as the three research units for general practice, located in Aarhus, Copenhagen and Odense.
