It is our great pleasure to end Open Access Week 2022 with a session dedicated to research data and its FAIRly new superheroes: the data stewards and their role as experts in data handling throughout all phases of the data life cycle.

Is it difficult to set aside time to write? The Academic Writing Centre arranges joint, structured “Shut Up & Write” sessions.

Heather J. Lewandowski: 
Quantum sensing, quantum networking and communication, and quantum computing have attracted significant attention recently, as these quantum technologies could offer significant advantages over existing technologies.

In order to accelerate the commercialization of these quantum technologies, the workforce must be equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills.

Through a study of the quantum industry, in a series of interviews with 21 U.S. companies carried out in Fall 2019 and from a survey administered to 57 companies through the Quantum Economic Development Consortium (QED-C) in Fall 2020, we describe the types of activities being carried out in the quantum industry, profile the types of jobs that exist, and describe the skills valued across the quantum industry, as well as in each type of job

Knut Oddvar Høie Vadla will defend his thesis "Search for production of charginos and neutralinos in dilepton final states with the ATLAS detector at the LHC" for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor at the University of Oslo, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences.

Welcome to the 8th and last Annual NORBIS Conference!

Alissa Kotowski is an Assistant Professor by the Department of Earth Sciences, Faculty of Geosciences at the University of Utrecht. 

Title for her tolk is: Strength and deformation mechanisms of amphibole-rich rocks in hot and cold subduction zones.

Hylleraas seminar, hosted in Tromsø

PhD candidate Camilla Lo Cascio Sætre at the Department of Biosciences will be defending the thesis "Genomic and phenotypic consequences of range  expansion and colonisation" for the degree of PhD.

The survival of green plants depends on the efficient use of photosynthesis in the leaves, where sunlight, water, and CO2 are transformed into sugar – the raw material, which builds up even the largest trees. The dissolved sugars are transported by osmosis through the sieve tubes of the phloem, a vascular system, which runs through the veins of the leaves and on through the stem, all the way down into the roots. The sugar production sites (mesophyll) are distributed over the entire leaf, and it is important for the functionality of the leaf that they are all able to export their sugars. For conifer needles the linear venation architecture makes this challenging, and they have an extra “transfusion tissue” that bridges between production and transport. We are currently studying this complex collection of interdigitated water -and sugar-carrying cells by micro X-ray tomography on intact needles and by network modelling, to understand the pathways for water and for sugars (running in opposite directions) with huge pressure differences (say 3 MPa) across tiny length scales (say 5 microns).
