What happens when we meet the people we would rather avoid?
Bli med til hjertet av USA, rett før presidentvalget i 2024. Med humor og sylskarpe observasjoner utforsker Kate Pendry egne holdninger, politiske skillelinjer og vår trang til å være «på den riktige siden». Forestillingen er en monolog med en nerve som utfordrer oss til å lytte, være nysgjerrige og se mennesket bak meningen. Uten å gå i konfrontasjon.

Dear everyone,
Is there really no one who wants to promote themselves or a good colleague to the faculty's teaching award and/or research award? Within the deadline, there was only 1 proposal for the best PhD work – it's hard to believe that there aren't more who deserved an award! Unfortunately, we in the management do not know everything about everyone, so help us find good candidates we can nominate!
Check my K2nytt editorial from January 23 for the criteria.
The new deadline is Sunday 8.2.

How can we identify the biological mechanisms that lead to diabetes at an early stage – and act before the disease develops? A proposed Center for Excellence in Research at UiB, iDIA, aims to change how we understand diabetes by taking personalized diagnostics and treatment to a new level.
Every day, patients at Norwegian hospitals need blood. Yet too few donate. Now the Blood Bank at Haukeland is encouraging everyone who can to register as a blood donor.

The Infection Control Act from 1994 is currently under revision. The Helse- og omsorgsdepartementet has conducted a broad and comprehensive review of the Act to ensure that the necessary legal authority is in place to handle potential crisis situations. Experiences from the COVID 19 pandemic have been central to this work, but the Defence Commission, the Civil Protection Act, and the Health Preparedness Report have also provided grounds for changes. Provisions used every day in the country’s municipalities and hospitals have been assessed.
En ny studie viser at blodet vårt inneholder langt mer informasjon om hjertesykdom enn tidligere antatt. Ved hjelp av avansert dataanalyse har forskere fra blant annet Bergen og Reykjavík kartlagt hvordan hundrevis av blodproteiner samspiller – og hvordan disse mønstrene…
A new study shows that children born with only one artery in their umbilical cord have a slightly increased risk of certain developmental disorders later in life. However, for the vast majority of children, this does not appear to affect development.
The Three Minute Thesis (3MT) is an international research communication competition that challenges PhD candidates to present their research in just three minutes, using a single static slide, to a general audience. The competition was originally developed at the University of Queensland in 2008 and has since grown into an international event, with competitions organised by networks such as the Coimbra Group and SANORD. UiB invites PhD candidates from all disciplines to participate in our internal 3MT competition. The winner will represent UiB in the international finals of the Coimbra Group and SANORD.
Publishing at K2
When the UiB Rector visited K2 last week, she asked about our publication strategy. K2’s strategy is quite simple: We publish open access as much as possible, and when we have strong and very interesting data, we try to publish in so called Level 2 journals. These are the top 20% highest-ranked journals within their field, and the list is updated annually by the National Publication Committee (NPU) and HK-dir. In 2024, 18% of K2’s 422 publications were in Level 2 journals. This is also the average for the Faculty of Medicine. For K2, it should be an objective to exceed 20% in Level 2 publications in order to demonstrate the overall quality of our research. Unfortunately, many Level 2 journals are still not fully open access. We can help promote fully open access Level 2 journals by publishing in them and having publication fees covered by UiB’s
Based on the number of publications, levels, and international collaboration, publication points are calculated. Until 2024, these were used to adjust funding for research institutions in Norway. This is no longer done, but the metric may still be a useful indicator to monitor, considering how well we manage under increasingly tight budget constraints. In the health trusts, publication points will continue to influence funding.
For this statistic to be accurate, it is important that affiliations are written correctly in submitted manuscripts from K2. AI tools often mistranslate this. The correct affiliation, where K2 is the employer or has otherwise contributed to participation in a study, is:
Finally, the K2 leadership congratulates Lars Herfindal, Professor of Pharmacology and the new Head of the Centre for Pharmacy, on receiving the prestigious Olav Thon Foundation Award for Outstanding Teaching.
