I denne siste lederen i 2014 vil jeg og resten av ledelsen p\u00e5 K2 takke for innsatsen i 2014. Det har v\u00e6rt jobbet godt med undervisning, forskning, forskerutdanning og HMS. Administrasjonen har gjort en stor jobb med \u00e5 systematisere og forenkle s\u00f8knadsprosesser og ansettelser.<\/p>\n

Budsjettet for 2015 er n\u00e5 vedtatt i Fakultetsstyret. Slik det ser ut n\u00e5 m\u00e5 vi dessverre ta et skikkelig jafs av stipendiater og postdoc\u2019ers driftsmidler for \u00e5 dekke det 3 millioner store underskuddet p\u00e5 K2 sitt budsjett; dette m\u00e5 til for \u00e5 levere det i balanse. Dette er noe vi gj\u00f8r med den ytterste motvilje! For at det likevel skal bli noe til hver stipendiat er det mulig at noe av driftsmidlene som vi normalt holder tilbake for \u00e5 dekke disputasutgifter f\u00f8res ut til forskningsgruppene, men da m\u00e5 gruppene ogs\u00e5 ta regningen. En annen viktig endring er at fakultetet fra neste \u00e5r bare dekker 70 % av manglende dekningsbidrag for prosjekter som kommer utenifra; unntaket er kreftforeningsprosjekter der vi mottar gaveforsterkningsmidler. Dette f\u00e5r ikke tilbakevirkende kraft, men for nye prosjekter m\u00e5 gruppene selv dekke de resterende 30%.<\/p>\n

Neste \u00e5r skal det sv\u00e6rt viktige arbeidet med ny studieplan i medisin sluttf\u00f8res. H\u00f8sten 2015 starter man med ny studieplan 1. studie\u00e5r, h\u00f8sten 2016 med ny studieplan f\u00f8rste, andre og fjerde studie\u00e5r. Fagomr\u00e5delederne skal sammen med de emneansvarlige legge den detaljerte timeplanen. Mange store tildelinger som er omtalt tidligere tilsier at forskningsaktiviteten kommer til \u00e5 v\u00e6re stor i \u00e5ret som kommer. I \u00e5r blir det totalt 21 disputaser p\u00e5 K2 (dessverre sl\u00e5tt av K1 som har 22), men vi har flere nyregistreringer. I \u00e5ret som kommer vil ledelsen jobbe videre med \u00e5 danne gode m\u00f8teplasser og \u00f8ke interaksjonen mellom K2 sine forskningsgrupper. Sist, men ikke minst, ny instituttleder skal ansettes og vedkommende vil helt sikkert sette sitt eget preg p\u00e5 instituttets arbeid.<\/p>\n

N\u00e5 er det imidlertid snart jul og tid for en pust i bakken n\u00e5r den tid kommer. P\u00e5 vegne av instituttledelsen \u00f8nskes alle en God Jul og Godt Nytt\u00e5r.<\/p>\n

In this last editorial of the year I wish to, on behalf of the K2 leadership, to thank everyone for their efforts in 2014. A lot of great work has been accomplished in teaching, research, research education and HSE. The administration has done a great job with systematizing and simplifying various administrative procedures.<\/p>\n

The 2015 budget has now been approved by the Faculty board. Unfortunately, it seems impossible to avoid using a big chuck of the PhD and Postdocs\u2019 operational funds to balance the 3 million kroner budget deficit. This something which we strongly dislike! To ensure that at least some funds will be available to PhD-Candidates, we will consider transferring the funds we normally reserve for public defense expenses to the various research groups. However, this means that the research groups themselves must cover these expenses. Another important change is that, starting next year, the faculty will only cover 70% of the overhead for external projects without overhead (Except The Norwegian Cancer society Funds). This will not affect ongoing projects, but those starting after 1 January 2015. This means that the groups receiving such funding must cover the remaining 30%.<\/p>\n

Next year The Faculty will finalise the New Medical School curriculum, starting up for first year students in 2015, and for 1st<\/sup>, 2nd<\/sup> and forth year students in 2016. The various leaders of the semester boards will, together with those responsible for the different subjects, work out the details. The recent funding obtained by many of K2\u2019s groups will hopefully be translated into good research in the year to come. This year we have had a total of 21 public defenses at K2 (unfortunately K1 beat us with 1), but we have the highest number of new recruits to the PhD program. We will continue working on creating good meeting places in order to facilitate interaction between K2\u2019s research groups. Last, but not least, a new Head of Department will start his or her term early next year. I am confident that this person will continue to develop K2 in a positive direction..<\/p>\n

Now, however, it is soon Christmas and time for a well-deserved break. On behalf of the institute leadership we wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.<\/p>\n
