Dear everyone,
I hope everyone had a nice summer and recharged their batteries, ready for a new semester. A quick reminder to those who have not registered their holidays yet, please do it now! You will also get a reminder from Mia. I am very happy that Mia is back, and many thanks to Ingvild Strømsnes who has stood in for her.
As you can see, K2nytt comes in a new design – many thanks to Øyvind Byrkjedal-Bendiksen, Lene Tøftestuen and Ingri Skulstad Lunde!
The institute's day (8 September 11:30-16:00, Bikuben) is approaching, we will, among other things, greet the new dean's office and listen to their visions and work with the FAMU survey.
Even though it's already been a while (sorry it went a little under the radar here): Congratulations to Eystein Husebye for being elected to the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters (https://dnva.no/detskjer/2025/03/akademiet-har-fatt-nye-medlemmer)!https://dnva.no/detskjer/2025/03/akademiet-har-fatt-nye-medlemmer)!
And last but not least: We can send proposals for honorary doctoral candidates to the faculty. We are encouraged to nominate relatively young, research-active candidates who have had significant scientific influence in one or more of the faculties' subject areas and at a high international level. Feel free to send suggestions for relevant candidates to me.
Have a great weekend!
