Now we are embarking on a new chapter at K2: Together with K1, we have gathered areas in the laboratory building that will be transferred to the Laboratory Clinic at the hospital. This will save the faculty from rental expenses that “K3” will have added to its budgets, and in addition, the departments will save operating costs that are paid directly by the departments. This means that some research groups will have to move a little closer to each other, which hopefully will have a positive effect such as joint projects in the future.
In addition, we will have a mandatory workshop with Kristine Tangen for all our PIs (i.e. associate professors/professors in a main position and postdocs/researchers with their own projects) to gain more understanding of our finances. A registration link will be sent out soon, there will be several possible dates to sign up for.
And last but not least: Remember to nominate for the faculty’s awards! Link to the research awards can be found here, and to the teaching awards here. The deadline is 1.2.2025
Have a great weekend!
