The Sahlgrenska Academy board is the highest decision-making body of the faculty, and is ultimately responsible for the education and research, and collaboration with external parties, in the field of health sciences at University of Gothenburg. Professor Ragnar Norrby is Chairman of the Board.
Professor Olle Larkö is Dean of the faculty. He reports directly to the Vice Chancellor of the university and is the board member responsible for managing the Academy’s activities. Three committees, each led by a assistant dean, prepare matters for the dean, who delegates part of his decision-making authority.
The Dean has appointed heads of the faculty´s six institutes. The heads of institutes collaborate with institute boards.
