Independent news on research in the Nordic countries

ScienceNordic, launched in November 2011, is the trusted English-language source for science news from the Nordic countries. We cover science in the broadest sense – the human sciences as well as natural science, health and technology. ScienceNordic is the result of a joint effort from two well-established science news services, Forskning.no in

Norway and Videnskab.dk in Denmark, which work in close collaboration with partners in Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Greenland, the Faroe Islands and Åland. Our team of experienced science reporters and editors follow the regional scientific communities closely and report on the latest and greatest discoveries. Videnskab.dk and Forskning.no are both highly regarded, award-winning science news services, published in Danish and Norwegian respectively. Both disseminate national and international science news through their independent editorial offices. Our content is targeted toward the global research community: researchers, students, the business sector, innovation clusters, international institutions and media – along with anybody else with an interest in science. Content from Forskning.no and Videnskab.dk may be made available in English on ScienceNordic, and content produced for ScienceNordic may similarly be published in the local languages on Forskning.no and Videnskab.dk. ScienceNordic is published online and is available to all.

Native American children were sent to boarding schools. When they returned home, many no longer felt part of their communities.

“They no longer knew their language, they spoke and dressed differently. They no longer knew their family members,” says research director Deidre Whiteman.

One of these schools was Norwegian: Bethany Indian Mission School was established in 1884.

In 2023, something snaps for chemist Alexander Sandtorv.

He's standing in the kitchen making crispbread with cheese. And that's when he really sees it: The cheese isn't just wrapped in plastic. There are also thin plastic sheets between every single slice.

"I lost it. We’re always being told that plastic pollution is a huge problem. So why do we continue with this outrageous use of plastic everywhere?" asks Sandtorv.

One of the things he's most worried about is that our plastic products contain a staggering amount of chemicals.
