Abstract

Digital Life Norway (DLN) Initiative to foster and boost transdisciplinary biotechnology research and innovation Meeting the rapid developments in biotechnology by fostering transdisciplinarity, including digitalisation and big data, to create convergence for innovation in a virtual centre. The Centre for Digital Life Norway (DLN) is a strategic national initiative originally conceived in 2014 by the BIOTEK2021 programme of the Research Council of Norway (RCN). It is an ambitious and large-scale initiative to foster and boost transdisciplinary biotechnology research and innovation activities, combined with a novel framework of responsible research and innovation, to solve challenges of societal importance and create value. DLN departs from the traditional organisation of research and development among Norwegian research institutions. The centre aims to untangle and resolve some of the fundamental societal challenges facing new and emerging biotechnology by emphasising technological convergence and transdisciplinarity.
