Radiumhemmet is a non-surgical cancer treatment and radiotherapy research institution in Solna, Sweden. Since 1938, it has been a division of what is now the Karolinska University Hospital. It was founded in 1910 in central Stockholm as the first oncological clinic in Sweden, succeeding a radium research and treatment institution at the Serafimerlasarett founded in 1906, and played a major role in the development of radiotherapy, especially in gynaecological cancers.

Norra länken (The northern link) is a motorway in Stockholm, Sweden, between the port of Värtahamnen and Karlberg, where it connects to Essingeleden. The road is part of the European route E20 and the incomplete Stockholm Ring Road.Norra länken is 5 kilometers (3 mi) in length, 4 km (2.5 mi) of which are in tunnels. The part between Karlberg and Norrtull was opened in 1991, and the tunnel between Norrtull and Värtan was opened in 2014. The other parts of the ring road are the highly congested Essingeleden in the west, opened in 1966, Södra länken in the south, opened in 2004, and Österleden in the east, where (as of September 2017) plans have been canceled.

Solnabron (Swedish: "The Solna Bridge") was a viaduct in Sweden. Spanning the Norra Station area and the Norra länken motorway, it linked the municipalities of Stockholm and Solna. Solnabron was torn down in 2011 as part of large-scale redevelopment of the area into Hagastaden. For a couple of years, it was replaced by a temporary bridge made largely from wood, before finally being replaced with a permanent overbuild. The stretch is now simply designated as Solnavägen ("Solna Road") instead of Solnabron.When inaugurated in 1942, the bridge opened an important new connection between the two municipalities, just as the hospital and scientific institutions were being collocated with what is today the Karolinska University Hospital, to the north of the bridge.The viaduct was 230 metres long and 27 metres wide; the roadway was made of a reinforced concrete floor resting on welded iron girders passing over columns pinned at both ends.During the negotiations preceding the construction, the Swedish State Railway, owner of the rail yard under the bridge, urged that the columns be movable, which would allow the yard to maintain the option of rearranging tracks, as needed. While the bridge was indeed built with movable pillars, the option was never exercised.

The Karolinska Institute (KI; Swedish: Karolinska Institutet; sometimes known as the (Royal) Caroline Institute in English) is a research-led medical university in Solna within the Stockholm urban area of Sweden.

The current rector of Karolinska Institute is Ole Petter Ottersen, who took office in August 2017.The Karolinska Institute was founded in 1810 on the island of Kungsholmen on the west side of Stockholm; the main campus was relocated decades later to Solna, just outside Stockholm. A second campus was established more recently in Flemingsberg, Huddinge, south of Stockholm.The Karolinska Institute is Sweden's third oldest medical school, after Uppsala University (founded in 1477) and Lund University (founded in 1666). It is one of Sweden's largest centres for training and research, accounting for 30% of the medical training and more than 40% of all academic medical and life science research conducted in Sweden.The Karolinska University Hospital, located in Solna and Huddinge, is associated with the university as a research and teaching hospital. Together they form an academic health science centre. While most of the medical programs are taught in Swedish, the bulk of the PhD projects are conducted in English. The institute's name is a reference to the Caroleans.

Stockholm North Station (Swedish: Stockholms norra station) or Stockholm N has been the name of two different railway stations in Stockholm, Sweden. Both have been used mostly for freight trains and not for passenger traffic. The first North Station was opened on 20 September 1866, first used as a temporary main station for trains on the northern lines. It was situated at Norra Bantorget ("North Line Square"), a square which got its name from this. All passenger operations moved to the central station in 1871. In 1925 the station was moved to Norrtull, where a new North Station was built at the railway line Värtabanan. This station was in use until the 1990s. Parts of the station are now being replaced with new buildings for apartments. The main freight train station in north Stockholm is now Tomteboda.

SciLifeLab (Science for Life Laboratory) is a world-leading Swedish national center for large-scale research and one of the largest molecular biology research laboratories in Europe at the forefront of innovation in life sciences research, computational biology, bioinformatics, training and services in molecular biosciences with focus on health and environmental research. The center combines frontline technical expertise with advanced knowledge of translational medicine and molecular bioscience. SciLifeLab is a joint effort between four of the best ranked institutions in Sweden and Scandinavia (Karolinska Institutet—the institution that awards the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm University and Uppsala University). The National Genomics Infrastructure (NGI) hosted at SciLifeLab offers large-scale DNA sequence data generation and analysis. SciLifeLab was established in 2010 and was appointed a national center in 2013 by the Swedish government. More than 200 elite research groups composed by 1,500 researchers are associated and work at SciLifeLab's two campuses in Stockholm and Uppsala. The Stockholm campus is surrounded by one of the largest hospitals in Europe both the old and the new Karolinska University Hospital buildings, the Karolinska Institutet and the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control. SciLifeLab is provided with SEK 150 million per year in state funds separate from other national and European grants and infrastructure support in the fields of drug discovery, drug development and fundamental research. Together with the prestigious American journal Science, SciLifeLab awards a young researcher prize. From 2018, SciLifeLab nominates Sjöstrand Lecturer in Structural Biology that would particularly spend time with students and postdocs during a visit to Sweden
