Mucus is a viscoelastic material which protects epithelial surfaces from the external environment. The functions of mucus are usually described as protection, lubrication, and transport , and in all these cases the physico-mechanical properties of the mucus are vital for function. But how does the presence of bacteria affect the function of the mucus?
Software Carpentry aims to help researchers get their work done in less time and with less pain by teaching them basic research computing skills. This hands-on workshop will cover basic concepts and tools, including program design, version control, data management, and task automation.
Organelle DNA is less protected than nuclear DNA and the risk of mutations could be high. How do eukaryotic organelles avoid the gradual buildup of deleterious mutations in the organelle DNA until function is lost?
How-to generate a data management plan for a Life Science research project that will meet the requirements of the funding organisations?
This course prepares PhD candidates and early career researchers within biotechnology, life science and neighbouring scientific fields to adopt Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) in their research practice.
The 8th Conference on Systems Biology of Mammalian Cells has particular focus on Systems Medicine and aspects of Digital Health. The event is postponed to 10-12. May, 2021.
The annual conference for and by the members of the research school.
Gathering the Nordic network within metabolomics research!

Diatoms is a group of unicellular eukaryotic microalgae. Due to their high lipid content they can be used as fish feed in aquaculture or generation of biofuels/bioplastics. How can the CRISPR/Cas gene editing system be used to develop strains of diatoms that are better suited for growth in bioreactors?

We are pleased to announce the Data Management planning workshop for Life Scientists organised in Trondheim by ELIXIR Norway, Digital Life Norway and Research Data@NTNU 30.11.–1.12.2020.
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 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

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.
