Moving to another country you will always notice cultural differences and Norwegians can be hard to interpret. We would like to help you crack the code and offer a seminar on this topic on May 11th from 10:00 to 15:00. The seminar is held by Karin Ellis. Please find more information and register here.

Check your tax return
Your tax return for 2022 is available for review and the deadline to hand it in is April 30th. Make sure to check that your tax information is correct: Tax Return – The Norwegian Tax Administration (skatteetaten.no). You will need MinID to access the assessment and you can order it here. Note that the PIN codes and information will go to the address registered in Folkeregisteret.
Remember that if you have been on the PAYE scheme during 2022, you will not receive a tax return; In June you will receive a receipt for PAYE tax, which shows how much salary and tax your employer has reported to the Tax Administration for the work you did last year.

The objectives of the call for proposals are quite broad, so that many activities can fit in:
- Providing the necessary knowledge to build the health care of the future.
- Supporting the implementation of innovative solutions on a larger scale.
The Research Council of Norway is announcing 2 000 000 euro to Norwegian researchers who want to participate in this European research collaboration. More information you can find here.
Kreftforeningen: Researcher projects opens for applications today
Up to 220 MNOK in total is available through four different themes in our main call for proposals. One new theme being Young Aspiring Cancer Researchers with 24 MNOK.
The application deadline is Friday 26th of May at 13.00. We look forward to receiving your application.

Joint Research Day UiB – Helse Bergen 170323 – and UiB – Helse Stavanger in the autumn!
Last Friday, the Joint Research Day for UiB and Helse Bergen got off the ground. The aim was to stimulate increased research collaboration between the hospital and the university. This was a success. We counted 160 people present in the room – i.e. more than the maximum number at registration. Consequently, there were not enough chairs, and some had to stand. There is nothing quite like feeling that something is so popular that it is cramped for space 🙂
CEO at Helse Bergen Eivind Hansen and Vice Chancellor at UiB Gottfried Greve opened the seminar together. They emphasized that today’s culture of collaboration is very good and little governed by what is difficult, but that you must constantly work to overcome the challenges that arise. Together we are stronger 🙂
This was followed by great, scientific talks on the corona pandemic by Professor and Senior Physician Nina Langeland, on rhythmic hormone diagnostics by Professor and Senior Physician Eystein Husebye, on possibilities for treating a rare cause of blindness by Associated Professor and Senior Physician Cecilie Brederup, and finally on mechanisms of action in anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders by Associated Professor and Senior Physician Olga Therese Ousdal. The research that was presented represented some of the best we have at Haukeland Campus, i.a. based on articles in the Nature, Science, and Lancet class.
The research seminar should definitely be repeated! If we e.g. aim for seminars four times per year, one can imagine themes such as patient cases with translational aspects, clinical studies, new techniques and methods, interdisciplinary studies, as well as presentations by young, promising researchers.
In connection with the half-yearly meeting of the Joint Education Council between the Faculty of Medicine and Helse Stavanger last Monday, the implementation of the first step for the new course of study Vestlandslegen at Helse Stavanger from the autumn was on the agenda. There was no doubt that the students will be well received with concrete plans for teaching for the coming 4th year in Stavanger.
Before the corona pandemic, we had planned a research seminar between UiB and Health Stavanger with the same goal as the meeting we had last week at Haukeland Campus. The corona pandemic caused this seminar to be cancelled, but now the initiative has been brought back to life. There was still great interest in such a meeting in Stavavanger, and I certainly believe that it is mutual when it comes to researchers in Bergen. There is much we can learn from each other with opportunities to create new research collaborations for mutual benefit and fun. We are therefore planning such a meeting in connection with the first meeting of the Joint Education Council in the autumn.
Have a great weekend!
