"We are extremely proud of Emily and Ruth for winning these awards. These are strong testaments of the excellent research and training that we thrive for at Sars", said Director @lionlchristiaen. Read more on #khrono ⬇️ Universitetet i Bergen Ruth Styfhals @EmilyClae 🔗khrono.no/notice/892326

Congratulations to the Chatzigeorgiou lab for a new paper just out in PLOS Biology 🤩👏 Authors Zonglai Liang and Daniel Dondorp characterized the role of an Anoctamine protein in notochord development in #Ciona. Take a peek behind the scenes! ⤵️ Universitetet i Bergen tinyurl.com/2k7v74db

Super happy to see the lab's 1st developmental biology paper out! Ciona is an excellent model to study the function of evolutionarily conserved molecules like Ano10 in basic developmental processes such as notochord morphogenesis.

Thanks Katrine Borgå for the opportunity to participate in this study with our local Michael Sars Centre Universitetet i Bergen Cionas ! It was a lot of fun working with Hilde & Sabrina!

We are so thankful for all the #Forskningstorget visitors, we hope that you had as much fun as we did! 🤩 With flawless organization Universitetet i Bergen and our amazing team sharing their passion for science, this year's festival was once again an incredible experience ✨🔬 Norges forskningsråd

And our assembly in Chatzigeorgiou lab at Michael Sars Centre in Bergen has started! Thanks Marios for all the work and the preparation. All the consortium ready to share the news in the project! JPI Oceans

We are excited to host the deuteronoise JPI Oceans consortium members at Universitetet i Bergen Michael Sars Centre for the next two days! We were extremely lucky to have Øyvind Fiksen join us to give the welcome remarks and present the vibrant UiB marine community to our guests

And just before lunch, Giovanni from Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca and Ignasi from La Salle BCN talk about the acoustic measurements and recordings in the basins under study, to analyze and model the vessel noise. JPI Oceans

The Sars team Pawel Burkhardt @lionlchristiaen had an incredible time in Villefranche during the Åsgard Horizon 2024 meeting. A beautiful setting for an inspiring week 🙏 IMEV-Institut de la Mer de Villefranche Institut français Norge EMBRC-Norway EMBRC-France Universitetet i Bergen

This morning we follow the work with Rosa Ma Alsina-Pagès from La Salle BCN, Valentina from Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, Matteo from Università di Genova and Michaela from GeoEcoMar. Sharing experiments, data analysis and the work we develop with stakeholders. JPI Oceans

📢 We are hiring Group Leaders! 🌊 Come join our team Universitetet i Bergen to lead innovative research in molecular, cellular and organismal biology using marine/aquatic organisms! ⌛️ Application deadline Dec. 15.
