Norwegian Complement Research Group
The Norwegian Complement Research Group (NCRG), led by professor Tom Eirik Mollnes, is an informal association of scientists focusing their work mainly on the complement system, a part of the hosts’ innate immunity. The group comprises approximately 20 people located at two different laboratories in Norway, “The Bodø Laboratory” at Nordland Hospital Trust, and “The Oslo Laboratory” at Oslo University Hospital, Rikshospitalet, and University of Oslo.
