A national resource for tomorrow’s treatments – Karolinska ATMP Center is now inaugurated
With a clear message of hope for the future and a powerful spirit of collaboration, the Karolinska ATMP Center in Flemingsberg was inaugurated at the end of August. The center is a collaboration between Karolinska Institutet and Karolinska University Hospital and will serve as a national resource for the production of advanced therapies (ATMPs), where research, clinical trials, and treatments work seamlessly together to deliver groundbreaking therapies to patients.
“While others back into the future, we lead the way forward—with curiosity, with science, with knowledge, but also compassion as our guiding star,”said Aida Hadžialić, Finance Regional Councilor and Chair of the Regional Executive Board in Region Stockholm, at the inauguration.
More than 600 participants from industry, academia, municipalities, and society gathered in Flemingsberg to celebrate the shared goal: accelerating the development and accessibility of tomorrow’s treatments.
“Advanced therapies represent a paradigm shift. They offer possibilities that were previously unimaginable,”stated Annika Östman Wernerson, President of Karolinska Institutet.
Throughout the day, ongoing research and breakthroughs were presented in cell and gene therapy, treatment of neonatal lung disease, Parkinson’s disease, and immunotherapies. The program highlighted the pioneering progress already being made within ATMP in Flemingsberg, where the center symbolizes a major investment in accelerating the work of future medicine even further. Knut Steffensen, Director of the Karolinska ATMP Center, summarized the vision:
“We will cure and alleviate tomorrow, what no one can cure and alleviate today.”
