DigitalLife is the annual conference for Centre for Digital Life Norway. In 2018 the conference will take place in the centre of Bergen at Grand Hotel Terminus.

Are you interested in mathematical or computational modeling of biological systems, using digital tools to analyze biological data, or in making your research more transdisciplinary?

Unfortunately this seminar has been cancelled.

NCMM will host a mini-symposium in Systems Medicine and Precision Medicine.

This seminar is a joint event between the Sven Furberg seminars in Bioinformatics and Statistical genomics and the Hans Prydz Guest Lectures.

This seminar is a joint event between the Sven Furberg seminars in Bioinformatics and Statistical genomics and the Hans Prydz Guest Lectures.

The two lectures will be presented by Dr. Tuuli Lappalainen, Junior Investigator and Core Member at the New York Genome Center, and Assistant Professor in the Department of Systems Biology at Columbia University, New York, USA, and Dr. Julio Saez-Rodriguez, Professor of Computational Biomedicine at the RWTH-Aachen University Hospital, Aachen, German, and visiting group leader at the EMBL-EBI.

An essential part of being a researcher is to communicate your research ideas and findings – providing society with new knowledge and directions for future solutions. But how to do this successfully? And how do you reach the right target groups?

Ana Domingos, Principal Investigator of the Obesity Laboratory at the Gulbenkian Science Institute, Portugal, will give a lecture titled, "Sympathetic Neuroimmunity for Obesity".

Lars Jansen, Principal Investigator of the Laboratory for Epigenetic Mechanisms, at the Gulbenkian Science Institute, Portugal, will give a lecture titled, "Chromatin-based epigenetic inheritance".

Dr. Judith Zaugg, Group Leader at EMBL in Heidelberg, Germany, will present the lecture entitled "Regulatory genomics: from basic biology to disease mechanisms."

The invited Volterra Lecture at UiT co-hosted by DigiBiotics is given by Prof Inger Sandlie who successfully have combined the role as innovator and researcher.

M.Sc. Ellen Østensen at Centre for Molecular Medicine Norway (NCMM) will be defending the thesis "Adrenergic regulation of the Ca2+ homeostasis in the heart - Cardioprotective effects in ischemia-reperfusion injury of targeting the AKAP18γ/δ-PLB interaction" for the degree of PhD.

Kimberley Dodge-Kafka, Associate Professor at the Department of Cell Biology at the University of Connecticut, will give a lecture titled, "mAKAP- a master regulator of cardiac hypertrophy"

Translation from research to value creation can not be done without understanding immaterial property and how to protect it. How can we ensure that we capture and exploit ideas? How can we develop collaboration between academia and business? We invite researchers and small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) to an educational day on IPR!

Course no: MF9120BTS - Molecular Medicine (national PhD-level course) 

Imre Västrik, Research Coordinator in the Bioinformatics Team at the Institute for Molecular Medicine Finland (FIMM) will give a talk titled, "TheDB - a smart integrated IT systemfor managing and analysing precision medicine data"

This year's retreat will take place at Farris Bad, Larvik

Dr. Eivind Valen, Group Leader at the Computational Biology Unit of the University of Bergen, will present the lecture "Searching for function in the dark matter of the genome."
