Latest news on the office situation at K2
The office situation at K2 is a challenge. A large project activity has contributed to an increased demand for office space and working places for phd-students. The administration needs your help in order to know of changes in demand and supply of working places in K2 areas in the lab building. Please remember that your need for office space is to be reported to Irene: Irene.Hjelmaas@uib.no
In the allocation of seats, we will follow the already decided ranking for allocation of office spaces: Professor, Associate Professor, researcher, postdoc, PhD student, research line student, master students. In addition, we will strive to have people sit near their labs and close to their partners. It is possible that we also need to utilize some lab areas as office spaces.
We have recently been given access to some great, new offices in the fifth floor in BUS. These offices are provided in order to relieve the pressure on office places in the Lab-building for researchers and post-docs. The offices are newly furnished with adjustable desks and room for 2-3 people per office. Anyone interested in the new offices can contact Irene or myself.
Now to something completely different; Horizon2020 is about to embark on the last three years of its’ existence with a bigger budget than ever. On that occasion, the Division of Research Management at UiB and the Research Council of Norway arrange a Kick-off meeting. Please see the separate post further down in this week’s news letter for details.
Best regards,
Julie

Ideas Competition 2017
Bergen Teknologioverføring (BTO), in cooperation with Sparebanken Vest, invites the research institutions in the Bergens region to participate in the 2017 Idea Competition.
The purpose of the idea contest is to stimulate the commercialization of research results, to highlight the environment of research and commercialization, and to draw attention to the need for research and innovation.
Researchers and employees, including Ph.D. and Postdoctoral Professors, from all our owner and partner institutions can participate.
The prize money has been raised to 500,000 kroner this year.
Professor Kamal Mustafa and his research group at the Department of Clinical Dentistry at the University of Bergen won the competition in 2016. Minister of Industry Monica Mæland handed over the award to Kamal Mustafa at the Bergen Nutrition Council’s “Annual Conference 2016”.
“The award gave attention to the importance of our research and the innovative potential of it. The award ceremony gave us a great opportunity to present research in front of academics, politicians and potential business partners from industry, “said Kamal Mustafa.
