Researchers´ Profiles - Gert Mulvad

Gert Mulvad is a family physician at the Centre for Primary Health Care in Nuuk, Greenland. He graduated in medicine from Copenhagen University in 1981. He has been working in Nuuk since 1986. In 2000 he was appointed an Associate Researcher at the Centre of Arctic Environmental Medicine, University of Aarhus, Denmark.

He serves on many committees involved in health care delivery and research in Greenland and the circumpolar countries, including Chair of the Council of Human Health Research in Greenland; Vice-Chair of the Council of Human Nutrition; and Chair of the Greenlandic Commitee of the Danish-Greenlandic Society for Circumpolar Health. He is a member of the Council of Education for Medical Doctors and the Greenlandic Research Foundation. Internationally he is active in the International Union for Circumpolar Health. He serves on the International Advisory Board of the Thule Institute, Oulu University in Finland and he is Scientific Advisor to the WHO/PAHO Collaborating Centre of the Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Québec in Canada.
