Hej (Hello in Swedish)....
In this topic I wanna give some review about Uppsala University (or Uppsala Universitet in Swedish).... This is where I have done my research for bachelor of science degree... This university is located in Uppsala,, a little bit north from Stockholm, the capital city of SWEDEN.. Uppsala is a very beautiful bicycle city with its own bicycle lane apart from usual road for car, so it is very convenient to travel around the city with bicycle (like what the student in Uppsala University do everyday).
About Uppsala University
Uppsala University is a comprehensive research university dedicated to advancing science, scholarship, and higher education.
The university plays an active role in society, promoting development and innovation.Uppsala is the oldest university in the Nordic countries
founded in 1477. For more than 500 years, Uppsala University has been a distinguished seat of learning with rich opportunities for students and
researchers at all levels. Uppsala University boasts a large number of ancient traditions, symbols, and festivities that have survived as a natural part of
academic Uppsala today.
WORLD-CLASS RESEARCH
Research is pursued across 9 faculties. In a great many fields, Uppsala University research is on the international cutting edge. Diversity and breadth make it possible to develop unique profiles that can provide both new perspectives on the fundamental questions of science and new knowledge to contribute to the sustainability of the environment, human health, and societal development. International collaboration is a key link in the University's activities
Faculties
The University is divided into faculties for education and research. Faculties are governed by faculty boards.
Uppsala University consists of nine faculties.

I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH IN FACULTY OF MEDICINE IN COMPARATIVE MEDICINE (Försöksdjursvetenskap) DEPARTMENT OF NEUROSCIENCE (Institutionen för neurovetenskap).
THERE ARE SEVERAL DEPARTEMENT UNDER FACULTY OF MEDICINE WHICH ARE:
* Institutionen för folkhälso- och vårdvetenskap [Department of Public Health and Caring Sciences]
* Institutionen för genetik och patologi [Department of Genetics and Pathology]
* Institutionen för kirurgiska vetenskaper [Department of Surgical Sciences]
* Institutionen för kvinnors och barns hälsa [Department of Women's and Children's Health]
* Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi [Department of Medical Biochemistry and Microbiology]
* Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi [Department of Medical Cell Biology]
* Institutionen för medicinska vetenskaper [Department of Medical Sciences]
* Institutionen för neurovetenskap [Department of Neuroscience]
* Institutionen för onkologi, radiologi och klinisk immunologi [Department of Oncology, Radiology and Clinical Immunology]
* Rudbecklaboratoriet [The Rudbeck Laboratory]
* Beijerlaboratoriet för genomforskning [Beijer Laboratory of Genome Research]
Institutionen för neurovetenskap (DEPARTMENT OF NEUROSCIENCE)
To understand how our nervous system functions and the mechanisms underlying its disorders is an outstanding challenge for biomedical research. At the Department of Neuroscience, we are working hard to increase our knowledge and insights into this area as well as into large areas of our musculoskeletal system and its disorders. A major objective with our research is to develop novel strategies to prevent and treat diseases and injuries in the nervous system and musculoskeletal system. By participating in different educational programs and courses, scientists at the Department communicate their knowledge to a wide range of future professional specialists – for example nurses, physicians, physiotherapists, speech pathologists and biomedical researchers.
We are about 130 employees, 100 graduate students and numerous young postdoctoral fellows. Moreover, a large number of professionals carry out research and teaching at Uppsala University Hospital (Akademiska sjukhuset) within the framework of the Department’s activity. Basic research is predominantly carried out the Uppsala University Biomedical Center or BMC (this is where I have done the research) and clinical research at various units in Akademiska sjukhuset (University hospital).
