This week we have the pleasure of having Helga Bodahl Holmestad, Sigurd Holmsen and Øystein Høistad from SINTEF.
Helga is a senior researcher at SINTEF (with a PhD in particle physics) while Sigurd and Øystein are working on their master of science thesis with supervisors from SINTEF, using machine learning and AI.
They will talk about research and job possibilities at SINTEF (in particular summer jobs with deadline coming up soon for summer 2023, of interest to many of you) as well as topics for Master of Science projects and other job possibilities.
Helga and Øystein will focus on machine learning applied to real life projects (in particular in connection with civil engineering and large construction plans) while Sigurd will present a project on machine learning applied to learning physical laws.

Doctoral candidate Elisabeth Opsjøn Lampe at the Department of Pharmacy, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis "The fish pathogen Francisella noatunensis subsp noatunensis: virulence factor characterization and vaccine development" for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.
Welcome to our dScience lunch seminar in the Science Library! This event is open to everyone.
The increased use of digitalization technologies in life science changes the way life science research is done. State of the art experimental techniques now routinely produce very large datasets of which the interpretation is unclear. This does not only increase our ability to interrogate the natural world, but also affects the research questions. This changes life-science research, but also our view of what a living system is. The practical consequences of this are still unclear.
Title: FORCeS Scientific Workshop 2022
In connection with the annual meeting of the EU H2020 project FORCeS (“Constrained aerosol forcing for improved climate projections”), there will be an open workshop with presentations of results from the project as well as from external speakers. If you would like to participate in the workshop in person, please sign up here within Wednesday 7 Sep 12:00.
Late Lunch Talk by Hanna Noordzij
Welcome to the first seminar of the semester, where there will be a light lunch and talks Dr. Pooja Kumari (Ciosk group) and Alexandre Gidon (Progida group).
The physics laboratory is a complex environment where students encounter the messiness of the real world, use scientific equipment, execute experimental procedures, make predictions using mathematical and computational models, and more. Despite their potential value, the lab experience can be negative or not effective, especially if the goals and outcomes are not well aligned.
This presentation uses Activity Theory (AT) to make sense of three very different laboratory environments: the “traditional lab”, RealTime Physics (a focus on conceptual learning), and Thinking Critically in Physics Labs (a focus on scientific abilities).
The presentation may be interesting to anyone who is developing or studying laboratory instruction in the sciences.
