Why Apply for a CAG?
A CAG must promote excellence in research with a view to ensuring better treatment for patients. By establishing a CAG, you and your colleagues help bring together clinical practice, research, education and further education across universities and hospitals. This way, you may improve the quality of research and contribute to faster implementation of the latest new research results into practice of benefit to the patients.
Who Can Apply for a CAG?
The GCHSP collaboration consists of four large health actors: the Capital Region of Denmark, Region Zealand, the University of Copenhagen and the Technical University of Denmark. The presidency of the individual CAG must therefore consist of one representative whose main employment is with one of the two universities and one representative whose main employment is with one of the two regions. All four partner organisations must be represented in the CAG – either in its presidency or among its key members.

About the GCHSP
Since 12 June 2017 the GCHSP has facilitated excellence in research with faster implementation of research results in clinical practice. Among other things, we do this by strengthening the cooperation across regions and universities via a series of Clinical Academic Groups (CAGs).
