Artificial intelligence (AI) has a tremendous potential in healthcare and there are many ways AI can be used to treat patients more efficiently and accurately. Nevertheless, there are possible ethical issues and pitfalls that must be considered.

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.

Join us for the annual conference for the Centre for Digital Life Norway – Digital Life Conference 2022 - in Trondheim 20-21. October 2022!

What are citizen needs, concerns and wishes for the digitalization of brain science? What would they like researchers to know about working with citizen data? What ethical and social needs should brain researchers keep in mind when developing neurotechnologies? Lise Bitsch presented her work leading public engagement initiatives in the Human Brain Project to engage diverse stakeholders to identify priorities, concerns, and potential benefits of emerging digital technologies. These are relevant both for scientific projects and for governance of AI in society.

Forskningen må være åpen, tilgjengelig og ansvarlig. Populærvitenskapelig formidling er et viktig bidrag for å involvere folket i forskningen.

Kom og hør om grensesprengende forskning fra Digitalt liv Norge. Denne kvelden gir vi ordet til yngre forskere som bruker bioteknologi til å finne løsninger på vår tids store samfunnsutfordringer.

The next FAIRDOM user meeting is scheduled for 17th of October, 2022 at 14:00 CEST.

The World Health Organization (WHO) states that antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats to global health, food security, and development today. A growing number of infections are becoming harder to treat as the antibiotics used to treat them become less effective. In addition to reducing the overuse of antibiotics, we need to discover and bring new antibiotics to market. This is a formidable challenge, but perhaps part of the solution can be found in the ocean?  

The Centre for Digital Life Norway is proud to be co-organizing a national meeting for bioinformaticians in Norway, taking place at Sundvolden Hotel 28-30 September 2022

Generate a data management plan for a Life Science research project that will meet the requirements of Norwegian institutions

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.

Welcome to the summer school “engaging in critical research within institutions”, co-organised by the AFINO and DLN centres!

Summer school: 7 September – 9 September 2022

This year, DLN and the Research Council of Norway are opening their policy forum to the AFINO centre, which is a co-organiser of the 2022 edition. 

As a relatively young discipline, bioinformatics has had an exceptional growth in technology and public interest. But what is bioinformatics? How is it used in novel research and commercial products? And what possibilites are seen in the future? 

Innovasjon er å skape verdier på nye måter, men det er noen utfordringer i dagens system som kan gjøre det vanskelig å få til mer innovasjon fra bioteknologiforsking på en ansvarlig måte. Hvorfor er det slik og hva kan vi gjøre med det? Senter for digitalt liv Norge har nå funnet noen svar og utarbeidet en rapport. Nå inviterer vi til diskusjon på Arendalsuka sammen med paneldeltakere som har lang erfaring med forskningsinnovasjon for å se nærmere på hva rapporten sier.

Velkommen! 

In collaboration with the Institute for informatics at the University of Bergen, the Digital lab organizes a summer school in collaborative scientific software development. This summer school is funded by NORBIS and Digital Life Norway.

Curious to learn more about what FAIR data management means in the field of life sciences? And how this is met by Norwegian research infrastructures? ELIXIR Norway and BioMedData are organizing a course for you!

The annual conference for and by the members of the research school.

It has been a while since the FAIRDOM community got together to exchange ideas and share our FAIRDOM-SEEK related experiences. We’re therefore very excited to announce a new series of FAIRDOM user meetings, with the first meeting scheduled for 9th of May, 2022 at 14:00 CEST.

Generate a data management plan for a Life Science research project that will meet the requirements of the Research Council of Norway

Due to the Covid-situation, the event has been postponed until further notice. We will announce a new date for the event later.

How can artificial intelligence (AI) contribute to prevent dementia? The EU-funded project AI-Mind aims to reduce the disease’s burden by developing novel, AI-based tools to support healthcare professionals in their diagnosis and offering timely interventions to patients.
