Vi inviterte Oslos befolkning til lysvandring i Botanisk hage på kvelden 15. februar. På vandringen fikk de se glimt av livsvitenskap i tillegg til vakre isskulpturer – en flott avslutning på Oslo Life Science 2018.

The future of medicine is interdisciplinary with contributions from natural sciences, social sciences and humanities. At this seminar, we showcase collaboration across disciplines in research on personalised cancer therapies; organ on a chip and nano-devices; and epigenetics and bioethics of human embryonic development. All topics with international keynote speakers.

Prof. em. Alv Egeland holder foredrag om Birkeland.

In this second talk, I will define Chekanov's version of Legendrian contact homology (LCH) for Legendrian knots in R3. I will begin with an example, showing that LCH is more sensitive than the classical invariants. This will use a linearized version of the homology. In the second part of the talk I will focus on the proof that the differential indeed squares to zero, and also say something about invariance under Legendrian Reidemeister moves. This is intended to be a smooth introduction to the next talk, where we will consider Legendrian contact homology defined for Legendrians in arbitrary 1-jet spaces. This case is more delicate, and we have to understand the concept of Gromov compactness for pseudo-holomorphic curves to prove that we get a differential graded algebra associated to each Legendrian, whose homology will give a Legendrian invariant.

_{Weekly Theory Seminar.}

At this seminar PhD-students, postdocs and Master´s students at UiO and NMBU had the opportunity to create networks outside academia. The response for the event was overwhelming and it was fully booked in a short time.

Let G be a finite (abstract) group and let k be a field of characteristic zero. We prove that for a non-singular projective G-variety X over k, and a non-singular G-invariant subvariety Y of dimension >= 3, which is a scheme-theoretic complete intersection in X, the pullback map PicG(X) -> PicG(Y) is an isomorphism. This is an equivariant analog of the Grothendieck-Lefschetz theorem for Picard groups.   

LMI and partners welcome you to join this day where we will present the Norwegian life science ecosystem, discuss the importance of collaboration, look at global success stories and challenge Norwegian decision and policy makers on their ambition and execution.

For all participants of the conference.

The main event of Oslo Life Science 2018 where we showcased our best interdisciplinary research and let international speakers give us new insight in how to increase value creation from basic research. And we got to hear what the government expects from the life science community in the Oslo region. See pictures and watch videos from the event.
