Division
The position of research coordinator is announced by Aging Research Center (ARC).

Karolinska Institutet and six other Swedish Universities are involved in the infrastructure. NEAR include 15 databases derived from longitudinal cohort studies located in different geographical areas in Sweden. NEAR aims also to implement international collaborations with other centers hosting databases. One of the recently developed collaboration is with the FONDAZIONE PIERA, PIETRO E GIOVANNI FERRERO (Fondazione Ferrero), Alba (CN), Italy (
