Ecology and connectivity of coastal spawning areas of pleuronectidae as inferred from egg distribution and oceanographic modelling

by

Sylvie Demouchy

From the University of Montpellier

Hosted by Razvan Caracas

This week we discuss a paper on genome skimming. The paper presents the potential for using low-coverage shotgun data for species identification, moving forward from more traditional barcoding approaches.

Turf mats characterization along the Norwegian Skagerrak coastline

We can almost smell the sweet scents of pine needles and tangerines when host Martin Giæver invites to this year's coziest television moment for the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. We will meet familiar and dear guests and artists when we thank Morten Dæhlen for his contributions as he steps down as Dean of our Faculty and welcome Solveig Kristensen directly from the Science Library.

We invite you to our last lunch meeting this year - the December RoCS Solar/Stellar Lunch. You are invited to discuss your work with colleagues.

C*-algebra seminar talk by Siegfried Echterhoff (Muenster)

Researchers from anthropology,  development studies and information systems share their conceputal and emprecial insights on 'global public goods' 

Post-transcriptional gene regulation in developing oocytes of C. elegans

Diatoms is a group of unicellular eukaryotic microalgae. Due to their high lipid content they can be used as fish feed in aquaculture or generation of biofuels/bioplastics. How can the CRISPR/Cas gene editing system be used to develop strains of diatoms that are better suited for growth in bioreactors?

Speaker:  John Marshall, MIT

Title:  The ocean circulation on icy moons

Do you want to join the application process in 2020/2021 for funding of new interdisciplinary research groups in life sciences? Then you should sign up for one of UiO:Life Science' meetings.

MSc. Knut Tormodssønn Hylland at the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis « Synthesis and Reactivity of Zn Schiff Base Complexes Derived from 2, 2’-diaminobiphenyls » for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

This week we discuss a paper on structural genomic variation. The study reports on resequencing of >1000 wild sunflowers and finds large non-recombining haplotype blocks that are associated with ecologically relevant traits and soil and climate characteristics.

This is a two days online workshop with interdisciplinary attitude. It is held on 10-11 December 2020.
