Meld deg på ett av bibliotekets kurs denne våren!
Bibliotek for medisin tilbyr kurs til ansatte ved Det medisinske fakultetet, og ansatte ved Helse Bergen:
Kursene er planlagt som hybridløsning, hvor det er mulighet for å delta både fysisk og digitalt via Zoom. Kursene er fortrinnsvis for ansatte og stipendiater. De fleste studenter får bibliotekkurs som en del av sin studieplan. Dersom ikke det er tilfelle kan de melde seg på disse kursene. Det siste kurset er spesielt for studenter som vil vite mer om litteraturoppgaver, og som ikke har hatt eget kurs om det.
Kursdatoer, påmelding og mer informasjon finnes på https://www.uib.no/ub/126018/kurs-og-veiledning#kurs-med-p-melding

The University Library offers guidance and support services for adopting open science practices and meeting requirements from funders and policy makers
There has been an increasingly strong focus on open access to publications and research data and good data handling practices. This is reflected in expectations and demands from financiers, authorities and institutions.
In this webinar the university library will give a short introduction to:
26.01.2024 – 10.15–11.00

The Global Health European and Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership 3 Joint Undertaking (GH EDCTP3 JU) has released its Work Programme for 2024.
In 2024, the GH EDCTP3 JU will distribute €140 million through two calls, which are planned to be launched on 18 January 2024, with a stage 1 deadline of 4 April 2024:
Det medisinske fakultet, UiB (MED) innfører fra 01.01.24 en ordning som legger til rette for at forskere som tildeles ERC-prosjekt ansettes fast etter endt prosjektperiode ved instituttet der forskningsaktiviteten naturlig hører hjemme. Fakultetet vil dekke lønnskostnaden ved instituttet Med denne ordningen ønsker vi å stimulere til økt søknadsaktivitet mot ERC, styrke fremtidig medisinsk forskning i Bergen, og gjøre fakultetet mer attraktivt, særlig for forskere tidlig i karrieren.
Følgende kriterier gjelder:
Members of FEMS Member Societies can apply for our grants. Research and Training Grants assist early career scientists in pursuing research and training at a European host institution in a country other than their own country of residence (and exceptionally to support research and training projects outside Europe). These grants may be used to contribute to travel, accommodation and subsistence costs of making the visit. Support is limited to a maximum of €5000.
Applicants
Applicants should be active microbiologists, having obtained their highest degree less than five years prior to the application deadline date or be a PhD student*. They should be a member of a FEMS Member Society. You can find a detailed overview of the requirements for this grant in the FEMS Grants Regulations.

Kunstig intelligens står for døren – eller er den allerede i klinikken? Hvem slapp den inn og hvordan håndterer vi den?
KI i helsesektoren er fortsatt i sin spede begynnelse, men potensialet er enormt.
Kunstig intelligens har potensialet til å revolusjonere helsesektoren og forbedre pasientbehandlingen på mange måter, men KI er ikke bare en kilde til muligheter og fordeler. Det er også en rekke utfordringer og risikoer som må tas på alvor.
Torsdag 18. januar kl 13.30-15.45 skal sikkerhetseksperten Cecilie Wian komme med råd til hvordan helseforetak bør håndterer sikkerhet, GDPR og personvern når disse hjelpemidlene tas i bruk. Arrangementet finner sted på Eitri.
Course description:
This course will provide an introduction to the computational analysis and reconstruction of both small and genome-scale metabolic networks. The main goal is to familiarize students with relevant state-of-the-art computational tools and databases, as well as to provide the students with hands-on experience in metabolic modelling approaches. Furthermore, we will cover the mathematical basis of constraint-based analysis of genome-scale metabolic models and provide a foundation for stability and control analysis of dynamic models. Link to the course description: Metabolic pathway analysis
Prerequisites:
Basic competence in a programming language (preferably Python) is expected. Basic knowledge in biochemistry, linear algebra and statistics are required.
Time: February 19th to March 1st, 2024. Please note that the course is two weeks.
Place: University of Bergen, Department of Biomedicine
Course responsible: Ines Heiland, Mathias Ziegler, and Suraj Sharma
Invited lecturers: Sascha Schäuble, HKI, Jena Germany
Suggested amount of ECTS: 10

Vi har nå fått en hjertestarter på lab-bygget som er tilgjengelig for alle. Den er plassert på nederste hylle i skapet kalt sikresonen i parketten/lunsjområdet i 5te etasje (se bilde). Den er helautomatisk og veldig lett å bruke der det både er tale og skjerm som viser hva du skal gjøre. Den har Norsk og Engelsk språk som enkelt endres ved å trykke på en knapp. Helt samme maskin og elektroder brukes på voksne og barn, men det er en bryter som må stilles på barn eller voksen. Inne i bærevesken ligger det også en startpakke med saks, maske for munn til munn osv.

The EMBO Young Investigator Programme supports life scientists who have been group leaders for less than four years at the time of application in setting up their laboratories. Young Investigators receive financial support for networking for four years and benefit from training opportunities, support for their lab members and mentoring. They become part of an international network of more than 700 current and former EMBO Young Investigators, Installation Grantees and Global Investigators.
This is an annual award and the next applications opens in February and close on April 1, 2024.

We will have a “data café” at the faculty of medicine on the 30th of
January from 9 to 12. All interested in data science applied to medicine are invited to mingle around a nice breakfast. Then, two workshops will be organized: (1) “Introduction to data handling in python” by Jakub Vasicek and (2) “How to be Open about your Science?” by Julia Romanowska.
Many of you have asked for it and we are pleased to announce that we will have a joint MED-CBU seminar on the 21st of March at 11:15. Like last time the seminar aims to foster interaction between researchers at
MED and CBU and will be followed by a mingling lunch. If you are interested in joining these events please let Marc know (marc.vaudel@uib.no). If you have suggestion of activities, workshop, or want to help with the organization – it would be most welcome!
Thank you!
Marc
