Future research platforms

Global challenges and national needs both underscore the importance of intensified research combining the strengths of all four faculties at SLU.

Research within the fields of forests, agriculture, animal health and welfare, and also urban environment are therefore assembled in four interdisciplinary future research platforms. These four research areas for the future will constitute platforms for e.g., internal and external interaction, coordination of research projects, and formulation of major grant proposals.
