All mid term evaluations for the department’s PhD candidates have now been completed for this semester. A big thank you to Irene for organizing everything, and to everyone who has contributed in the evaluation committees.

Many research groups now work on updating their web-pages. It is important that our department presents updated and informative web-pages about our activities. The launch of the new W4 pages is scheduled for 11th June.

I would also like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that all projects involving the processing of personal data in research and student projects at UiB must be registered in RETTE, and kept up to date. The system has been in use for several years now and is intended to ensure that we meet our legal obligations as a research institution, but it has become even more important with the new Health Research Act. Project leaders must ensure that project information is updated, for example, if the project period is extended or responsibilities change. RETTE has recently undergone an overhaul to make it more user friendly. Improved routines have been established for the automatic transfer of REK correspondence, and K2’s RETTE contacts will now more frequently check that projects are up to date. As of today, 171 projects are registered at K2.

Finally, let me remind you about the 24 May deadline to apply for funding to finalize applications for the NFR FRIPRO program (see last week’s editorial).

Wishing everyone a wonderful 17 May celebration!
