Congrats to Endotrain's very own leader, Eystein! His application for a Research Council of Norway Centre of Excellence (SFF) has made it through to the final phase!

The proposed research center RRISE will uncover how biological clocks regulate the interaction between the hormonal system and the immune system – and how disruptions in these rhythms triggered by shift work, stress and sleep disorders can lead to autoimmune diseases. By combining continuous hormone measurements, immunoassays and data from everyday life, the center will identify disease mechanisms with the goal of preventing disease.

Good luck Eystein and colleagues!

We are delighted to welcome the first of our 19 PhD students to the programme! 

Fabian Fabritius (external link) started in March and will be based at the University Hospital Zurich (USZ) and University of Zurich (UZH), Switzerland. 

Watch this space for a little more info about Fabian - coming soon!

This week the team of lead scientists came together in Bergen to celebrate the start of the programme and get the (endo)train rolling!

... And we're off!!

Endotrain officially began on Jan 1st 2026. Over the next four years 19 PhD students will be working together to revolutionize digital healthcare - bringing together clinical endocrinology, AI, data science, engineering, ethics and law - to better assess and treat patients.

We'll use this space to introduce our new students and update on progress as we go.

The programme may not have officially launched yet, but that hasn't stopped us getting the announcements for 19 PhD positions out! 

Over the next few month we'll be hiring 19 new shiny PhD students to bring this programme to life.

Take a look here if you're interested in joining the team!
