Årets Darwin Day tar for seg en "månelanding" innen biologien: Å kartlegge arvematerialet til aller arter på jorden innen et tiår! Foredrag av Kerstin Lindblad-Toh, Josefin Stiller, Maren Wellenreuther, and Tom Gilbert.

LMI and partners welcome you to join this  day with presentations and discussions from the Norwegian life science ecosystem and industry leaders from Global Pharma.

For boys in upper secondary schools.

How are international regulations of pollutants followed up nationally and locally in Norway and Tanzania?

The workshop will bring together Norwegian and Tanzanian environmental authorities to address how international regulations on persistent organic pollutants are met nationally and locally.

What is happiness? What does it take to create and live a happy life? Is happiness more readily available to those who are able to see meaning in the little things? Is there any universal answer to what happiness really is to man?

NanoCosmos shows striking microscopy images from researchers in the convergence environment Programming Cell-Like Compartments. They will give you a glimpse into the nanoworld of soft matter and the microworld of cells – a "Wunderkammer" – where science becomes art. Join us for the opening February 11 at 18!

Climate change affects food production and food security. The way we produce food and what we eat affects the climate. Join us when we put self-storage, food safety, biodiversity and sustainable diet on the menu with experts from UiO and NMBU.

Johan Pensar (formerly Department of Mathematics and Statistics, University of Helsinki, from 01.02.2020 Department of Mathematics, University of Oslo) will give a talk on February 11th at 14:15 in the Erling Sverdrups plass, Niels Henrik Abels hus, 8th floor.

At this seminar PhD students, postdocs and Master´s students in life sciences at UiO and NMBU had the opportunity to create networks outside academia. Watch videos from the event.

In this seminar international experts and junior speakers from the UiO:Life Science convergence environment PerCaThe will discuss innovative methods for personalized and precision cancer therapy. Topics covered in the seminar include drug sensitivity screening, machine learning and combined mathematical, statistical and imaging methods for cancer modeling and simulation of drug treatment. 

Collaboration between Pharma industry and Academia. The aim of the conference is to show how real world evidence (RWE) is changing the landscape for drug development and clinical use and to present RWE Initiatives that put the Nordic region in the forefront.

Forskerforbundet ved UiO har gleden av å invitere til overlevelseskurs/stressmestring for deg som er tidlig i din forskerkarriere. Trenger du råd om hvilke strategier og holdninger som kan hjelpe deg gjennom livet som stipendiat? Hold av datoen!

Refreshments and mingling in Oslo City Hall  for all participants of the conference. You need at ticket to attend the reception. All who have registered, will get their ticket on email by the end of week 6. The reception is fully booked, but you may sign up for the waiting list.

At the Oslo Life Science Conference 5-year anniversary we looked ahead into the new decade. What will life sciences bring us in 2020–2030? What is the role of artificial intelligence (AI)? What are the visions for academia, hospitals and industry in a rapidly changing world where we need sustainable solutions? How can Oslo and Norway strengthen its position as a leading life science hub in Europe?

We have developed a framework to describe the modeling process in physics laboratory activities.

Title: Experimental investigation of droplet trajectories and airflow above breaking waves​, by Reyna Guadalupe Ramirez de la Torre

Abstract: Within the marine boundary layer the interaction between air and water is constant and takes different forms. An interesting example is the artic ocean spray, generated by wave impact and wind, which can cause severe icing on vessels. Understanding this phenomenon is important for the safety of people, ships and installations that operate in the arctic environment.

In this study we performed lab-scale experiments of breaking waves, to describe the trajectories of the droplets in the spray generated by wave impact and wind. Focusing waves generated by a wavemaker provided highly repeatable wave breaking events. A fan was used to produce wind within a closed section above the waves. The airflow over breaking waves was measured using Particle Image Velocimetry, while 3D Particle Tracking Velocimetry was used to reconstruct the droplets trajectories. The main objective is to understand the dynamics and characteristics of the spray cloud under different wind conditions. The results of these experiments can be an important input for simulations, and in the future assist the the development of accurate models which can be used to reduce the risk associated with icing of arctic structures.
