Hello world,
My name is Angeliki Barouti, or just Lina, and I come from the beautiful island of Crete in Greece. I was always impressed by the diverse flora and fauna of my country and how they contribute to both the ecosystem and peoples’ lives. This led me to not only keep buying tons of plants but also to Pharmacy school at the National Kapodistrian University of Athens. The field that intrigued me the most was the Natural Products domain where I carried out my thesis. After completing my BSc, I undertook an MSc in Medicinal Natural Products and Phytochemistry at University College London where I dug into more aspects of Pharmacognosy. 
Now, I am still looking forward to contributing to the research on natural products. I am very happy I did a swift to marine natural products and I can dive more into this under-explored source of new chemicals.
I am joining Monica Jordheim’s research group here at the Chemistry Department and Lars Herfindal’s group in the Department of Clinical Science. I am working on a very interesting, interdisciplinary project about marine bioprospecting. I focus on the chemical analysis and bio-guided fractionation, targeting high-value products from marine algae and epiphytes.
I find very fascinating the field of ethnopharmacology and the ethical dilemmas about bioprospecting so if you feel like wanting to learn more about these or my work let me know!! Cheers, Lina
The UiB AI Steering Group welcomes you to a seminar on April 8th at 10 am in the University Aula. The seminar lasts until 11:30 and there will be lunch and discussions 11:30-12:00.
This is the second in a series of seminars on artificial intelligence at UiB. The seminars will be a meeting point across departments and fields of research, where different examples on the use of AI in research will be presented.
On April 8th Samia Touileb and Ghazaal Sheikhi from MediaFutures (Department of Information Science and Media Studies) will talk about how AI sees the world and makes the decisions that shapes it.
Since participation is physical and we will order food, we ask all participants to register via the link on the seminar web page. You will find more information about the seminar and registration link here:

Dette semesteret har sivilingeniørstudentene i Medisinsk Teknologi fått prøve seg i det splitter nye praksisemnet vårt MTEK200. Gjennom praksisutplasseringen skal studentene få innsikt i arbeidslivet og en praktisk forståelse av arbeidsprosesser innen et bredt spekter av virksomheter med relevans til medisinsk teknologi.
Som en del av de obligatoriske undervisningsaktivitetene skal studentene publisere to blogginnlegg hver. Nå har de aller første innleggene blitt publisert og vi er spent på å lese om hvordan praksisen har gått.
Er dere nysgjerrige på hva studentene har jobbet med og hvor de har fått praksisplass? Ta turen innom praksisbloggen da vel!
Bloggen finner dere her.
Generate a data management plan for a Life Science research project that will meet the requirements of the Research Council of Norway.
Centre for Digital Life Norway is pleased to announce the Data Management planning workshop for Life Scientists in Norway by ELIXIR Norway and Digital Life Norway.
All projects that receive funding from the Norwegian RCN are required to submit a data management plan as soon as possible after the contract with the RCN has been signed. All Norwegian universities now also require a DMP for all projects. This workshop focuses on how-to generate a data management plan for a Life Science research project that will meet the requirements of the RCN.
They invite researchers (PhD candidates, Post Doctoral Fellows, Researchers, Associate Professors and Professors) in existing and upcoming Life Science projects to develop their DMP in this workshop.
Maximum number of participants: 45.
The workshop will take place if there is at least 10 participants.
Read more about the program and register before 31 March 2022 here.
UiB FERD Career Center for Early Stage Researchers offers courses in Risk Management in research projects for PhD candidates and young researchers.
The course will help you as a project manager or project participant to understand and plan research projects to minimize risk and ensure good implementation.
Please, see this webpage for general information about the courses and to register for the course.
For PhDs: 16.3.22 at 09.00-11.30. Reg. deadline: 10.3.22 at 12.00.

Hello to everybody!
My name is Marcello Costamagna and I come from a small town in northwest Italy. 
I received my bachelor’s at the University of Padova, mostly focusing on physical and computational chemistry. For my master’s, I then moved to Pisa where I picked up the physical chemistry curriculum. For my master’s thesis, I chose the topic of carbon capture and storage (CCS). As it was a completely new topic for me, it has been a great opportunity to challenge myself in doing research, improving my lab skills, and having fruitful collaborations, in particular with a group at the University of Perugia where I also worked for a few weeks.
And now, I am happy to be part of the Jensen group at this University. My Ph.D. will focus on the development of the DeNoptim software and its applications, and it will involve close collaboration with the informatics department.
Cheers,
Marcello
Meltzer Research Fund has made additional funds available this year, and the university has now released an extraordinary call for applications.

I was born and raised in a small village called Juankoski in the North-Eastern parts of the Finnish lake district. The village was socially an interesting place, as it had just 2000 inhabitants, but two rather large factories, and was surrounded by tens of kilometers of just forest, lakes, and small farms. I really liked growing up there, and still have a cabin (and two saunas) on a half-a-hectare island 5 kilometers from the center of Juankoski, where I like to go as often as possible.
