Artificial Intelligence (AI) is often mentioned as the solution to many of our future challenges, also within healthcare, and in January 2020 the Norwegian Government launched a National Strategy for Artificial Intelligence. What role could AI play in cancer diagnostics? How should diagnoses be set in the future, and which new questions might arise when introducing new technologies?

The annual conference for the Centre for Digital Life Norway – a unique transdisciplinary research centre creating the biotechnology of tomorrow.

The annual conference for the Centre for Digital Life Norway 19 November 2020. Visit the conference web page to see the great speakers!

The talk "Measuring Organelle Surface Tension in Living Cells" will be given by associate professor Sushma Grellscheid from the Department of Biological sciences and Combutational Biology Unit, Department of Informatics, UiB.

In response to the Covid-19 emerging as a global pandemic in March, NTNU formed an interdisciplinary team to develop an epidemiological model and provide additional insights on risk factors and strategies for mitigation. This lecture, by Andrè Voigt, will give insight into this work.

This course is for all PhD students and postdoctors who want to learn more about working on transdisciplinary research projects within biotechnology and the life sciences.

Do you often stumble upon new concepts and topics that fascinates you, but miss someone to explore and discuss them with? Then the Digital Life Reading Club might be something for you

Join the annual conference made for and by the research school members!

How you can generate a data management plan for a Life Science research project that will meet the requirements of the funding organisations?

In this course we will cover how to generate a data management plan for a Life Science research project, which will meet the requirements of the funding organisations.

This workshop aims at enabling an arena for researchers, policy advisors and legal practitioners to discuss current developments on debates on access to and commercial exploitation of biodiversity. Some key questions: What happens when physical collections become digital data? How would data be published, stored and shared? How would the access to digital collections be regulated? How would that affect access to physical collections? Do we need national systems for monitoring access and use of physical/digital collections? What are best policy solutions? We invite DLN partners to a 1-day workshop. The workshop will start by inviting a discussion on main challenges regarding access to genetic materials in Norway, to follow on the particular debate on access to and use of Digital Sequence Information (DSI) as it is currently addressed in the framework of the Nagoya Protocol. In this regard, the workshop includes a focus the shortcomings of the notion of DSI, and on current debates on monitoring and tracking systems for digital genetic information.

Topology, a field of pure mathematics, has gained popularity in recent years for its application to complex multi-dimensional datasets. This lecture will provide many examples of its use within biological sciences.

In the frame of Research Council of Norway projects INBioPharm and NORUSCASA, SINTEF and NTNU cordially invite interested students and researchers to the first talks of a new seminar series on Metagenomics for Pharmaceutical Innovation.

World-leading developers of advanced next-generation live-cell microscopy techniques assemble in Tromsø to deliver lectures on bio-imaging application, implementation details, and underlying fundamental concepts.

Professor Arnoldo Frigessi at Faculty of Medicine, UiO will be talking about Artificial Intelligence and medicine - with examples and critical thoughts.

A pre-event to Norwegian Biochemical Society's contact meeting - for PhD students and postdocs only.

The environmental sciences rely on data from many different fields and information sources. These have to be combined and integrated to extract knowledge about how the environment is changing and the underlying causes. We are happy to have Elisa Ravagnan, senior scientist at NORCE, here to present and discuss how this can be done.

In conjugation with the PhD course Metabolomics- Methods and Applications, there will be a mini-seminar open for everyone.

What are the available infrastructures and core facilities for metabolomics and metabolic analysis in Norway? How about available services for data analysis, bioinformatics and modelling of metabolic systems?
