On March 13th CBU group leaders gathered at the Thon Hotel Rosenkrantz Bergen for the workshop to discuss science and strategies.
Today the Norwegian Research Council sent the results of the evaluation of CBU over the last ten years. We received extremely positive feedback and useful comments that will help us further develop our activities in the future. The unit received top scores in both “organization” and “research quality”, as well as almost full pot in “societal …
Our group leader Markus Miettinen has been a visiting scholar at KIAS in Seoul for two weeks where he gave an invited talk: High-fidelity Biomolecular Modeling of Disordered Biomolecules.
On March 12th Håkon Tjeldnes successfully defended his PhD thesis titled: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Translatome. Protein synthesis, also called translation, is a fundamental process in gene regulation. The translation process consists simply of molecules, called ribosomes, using RNA as a template to create proteins that the cell needs. However, it has been uncovered …
