About the collaboration

Kavli Trust is supporting the international implementation of the Bergen 4-Day Treatment (B4DT) with NOK 35 million in funding for the period 2018–2025.

The project is led by clinical psychologist Bjarne Hansen at the Bergen Center for Brain Plasticity (BCBP), a research center established in 2018 through a collaboration between Haukeland University Hospital, the University of Bergen, the Trond Mohn Research Foundation, and Kavli Trust.

BCBP focuses on developing and studying effective, concentrated treatment formats to explore the multi-level mechanisms of brain plasticity. This knowledge also contributes to the future development of effective treatment methods.

The center works closely with the Clinic for 4-Day Treatment at Haukeland University Hospital, Helse Bergen, to promote the international dissemination of the method.

On this page, you’ll find articles, features, and travel journals written by Bjarne Hansen, his team, and their international collaborators documenting this important work.
