Our services
We offer researchers various services such as data access and analyses, sharing of statistical syntax files and advice on ordering and handling data. We also organise seminars on the use of Swedish databases for research within our field.
Data access and analyses
Via our four nodes, we offer access to well-documented data, help with data analyses and online data visualisation.
LNU
Researchers are welcome to apply to use LNU data for their own research purposes. Applications are assessed by a data disclosure committee consisting of researchers at the Swedish Institute for Social Research (SOFI).

LNU and SLOSH also offer advice and support regarding the use of their data resources and on relevant study methodology.
Seminars, lectures and courses
We organise seminars on the use of Swedish databases for research within our field, for example on:
- ordering and handling register data
- design of studies based on different types of register and survey data
- social insurance medicine
- longitudinal methods.
Starting in 2022, we organise seminars on the use of survey and register data in research for researchers at universities in Sweden.
REWHARD organised a workshop on non-response in surveys with several international speakers in September 2022. For more information, please contact Beatrice Chaveroche beatrice.chaveroche@su.se.
