For the first time, SNOMED International, as part of the April 2025 Business Meetings in Oslo, is hosting a full day of presentations and discussions focused on Norway. To be held on April 10, SNOMED CT in Norway Day will offer 10 sessions highlighting SNOMED CT use and initiatives in Norway and more broadly in Europe. The event builds on the SNOMED CT in Europe day held in 2024 in Belgium and is free to attend, whether onsite or online.
In a recent blog, Marte Rime Bø, Senior Advisor for Terminology at the Norwegian Directorate of Health, discusses the goal of the day’s events and why you should consider attending, either in person or online.
She discusses the purpose of the event and the role of the Norwegian Directorate of Health and the Norway National Release Centre in hosting it, and touches on the focus of the morning and afternoon sessions, including the opening keynote on dental health and big data with Jørn André Jørgensen, and the afternoon innovation spotlight with Anthony Shek on artificial intelligence and language models. She also outlines the three most important takeaways participants will leave with: better understanding the diversity of SNOMED CT use, gaining more insights into how these local initiatives fit into or align with international initiatives, and making connections with others to share problems and solutions.
