KOR Members and Secretariat
KOR consists of Danish researchers engaged in register research who possess in-depth knowledge of the potential of Danish registers and associated resources, as well as the barriers and challenges that may arise for register researchers. Each Danish university is represented with 1–2 members in KOR, and in addition, the wider Danish analysis community—for example, sector research institutions—is represented by 2 members. The chair of KOR is appointed by DeiC’s board.
The members are appointed by the universities and the Independent Research Fund Denmark, and the ambition is that KOR should represent and embrace the full spectrum of register research. Since register research is often interdisciplinary, an interdisciplinary approach is a priority in the composition of KOR.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the representative from your university or organization.
