Wonderful news yesterday for Computational Biologists in Norway, and in particular for our younger colleagues who will get trained in the field through their PhD in the years to come. The Research Council announced that it will fund the national research school in Computational Biology led by Susanna Röblitz! This will truly take PhD education …
In the first paper, published in Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, Markus and his team propose a method to correct inconsistencies in lipid monolayer experiments. They combine X-ray reflectometry with molecular simulations to determine accurate molecular areas. This correction improves the reliability of surface-pressure–area isotherms. It was successfully applied to several lipid …
The second CHARM-EU OS Award was given to University of Bergen and CBUs Dr. Korbinian Bösl (individual category). Building and promoting open scientific data infrastructure and culture at the University of Bergen, nationally across Norway, and internationally via European initiatives has been in the centre of Dr. Bösl’s career. As Data Management Coordinator at the …
An article in GENialt discusses cuts in funding for American research and how this is causing concern both in the U.S. and internationally. Norwegian researchers, including Professor Sushma Grellscheid from CBU and ELIXIR, are worried about the potential consequences for research data stored in U.S.-funded databases. Read the full article in the latest issue of …

ATP is a molecule that provides energy for many cellular processes, driving life. The variation of ATP concentration through the cell is an important influence on these processes, but this variation is hard to explore with experiments. In a new paper in Biophysical Journal, we use a simple mathematical model to explore the general circumstances …
