Life on other planets
The search for habitable planets in other solar systems
Carina Persson, Professor of astrophysics
Wednesday 12 February at 16:15 in Egget, Studentsenteret.
Coffee and refreshments will be served from 15:45.
The first planet in another solar system was discovered in 1995 and immediately raised existential questions: Are we alone? Could humans thrive on other planets? How can we detect life or assess habitability?
The first exoplanet, a planet that orbits another star than our sun, was seen from Earth as late as 1995 by Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz and earned them a shared Nobel Prize in Physics. Before their breakthrough, it was believed that all planets and systems would look like our own. But the first planet was an unexpected new type.
Academic co-authorship: integrity, guidelines and dilemmas
In this seminar UiB Ferd invites PhD candidates, post-docs and other junior researchers to discuss issues and dilemmas related to academic authorship.
Disagreements concerning authorship is prevalent at universities, and this topic was central at the university’s Research Ethics Day on 4 October. The vulnerable position of young researchers in co-authorship conflicts was underlined by several speakers. In this seminar UiB Ferd invites PhD candidates, post-docs and other junior researchers to discuss issues and dilemmas related to academic authorship.

Innovative Teaching Across Borders: An Introduction to COIL
20.02.2025 – 12.00–15.00
Are you interested in collaborating with educators from around the world, enhancing your teaching skills, and offering students meaningful international experiences? Join our workshop to discover how COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning) can open doors to innovative teaching and learning!
COIL is a pioneering educational methodology that connects students and faculty from diverse international backgrounds through online platforms. It bridges geographical, linguistic, and cultural gaps, promoting collaboration and inclusivity. COIL democratizes international education, fosters collaborative knowledge-building, and enriches personal and academic development by engaging participants in diverse team-based projects.
The Centre for Pharmacy and the Pandemic Centre at the University of Bergen, in collaboration with CEU San Pablo University (Spain), invite you to a workshop focused on advancing the development and implementation of COIL methodologies on 20 February.

Heart Room: From Innovation to Implementation
Innovation in healthcare is increasing. At the same time, large fundamental infrastructures are being replaced so that institutions can adopt new and enabling technology in the future. These changes are often organized as large implementation projects, often far from the daily life in the hospital departments. An exploratory approach to how the new solutions can be adopted and optimized locally often has to be deprioritized in favor of core tasks in a busy everyday life. And the result? Good tools are not fully utilized, and the benefits of digitalization are lost.
Date and Time: February 4, 1:00 PM – 2:30 PM Location: Eitri

In science, we trust? — The role of science-based knowledge in turbulent times
Welcome to Day Zero of the SDG Conference Bergen, 5 February 2025! As usual, there will be a series of parallel events. The day starts with a panel on the role of science-based knowledge in turbulent times.
Trust in science is seen to have eroded in recent years. There are widespread anti-science sentiments in politics and social media, as seen particularly in debates around climate change and pandemics. In this opening session for Day Zero, we will discuss whether trust in science actually has eroded and what this means for scientists, science communicators and policymakers.
The session will open with a presentation of the large-scale study Trust in Science and Science-related populism, by Viktoria Cologna who led the study. This is followed by a presentation of an international project on disinformation in the media, by Media City Bergen.
The panel discussion will focus on how research can adapt and be resilient and robust in these turbulent times.
