Factors affecting the distribution and abundance of great crested newt (Triturus cristatus) and smooth newt (Lissotriton vulgaris) in Akershus

Investigation of the Phytoplankton Spring Bloom in the Oslofjord by Individual-Species and Common Garden Experiments

In collaboration with Energy Valley and SINTEF, we welcome you to an afternoon where leading researchers from the University of Oslo and SINTEF meet forward-looking companies from the energy and technology sectors to explore collaboration, share insights, and engage in industrial discussion.

Nitesh Goyal of Google Deepmind, will present a talk titled -  "You have to prove the threat is real": Understanding the needs of Female Journalists and Activists.

Goyal will be giving two talks at the Department of informatics this June, with support from the Design4Dem research group (UiO:Democracy), situated within the DESIGN group.

Sunghwan (Sunny) Jung is a Professor in the Department of Biological and Environmental Engineering at Cornell University. His research interest is to investigate various physics and biology problems emerging from the interaction of biological systems with surrounding environments. His group has integrated mathematical modeling, fluid dynamics, and physical & biological experiments to understand animal behaviors and plant physiology for better functions and performance.

Modelling wave-induced losses on floating photovoltaic systems

On June 11–12, 2025, the Centre for Biogeochemistry (CBA) will gather its members for the annual two-day meeting – this year taking place in Drøbak. The first day will be dedicated specifically to the BioGov project, one of several research projects operating under the CBA umbrella.

Hylleraas seminar, hosted in Oslo

Doctoral candidate Vladimir Rosenov Koynarev at the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis Antimicrobial Peptides and Lipid Membranes: Structure, Transport and Organization for the degree of Philosophiae Doctor.

Prior to his appointment at Victoria University of Wellington in February 2015, Budhi had spent nearly three years at Bank of America Corp. working as a Quant at the level of AVP. He was based mainly in Singapore with direct reporting line to the Head of Quantitative Risk Management Group at BofA HQ in Charlotte, North Carolina. He joined BofA soon after the completion of his PhD in Utrecht in January 2007. His area of research is predominantly on applied probability and stochastic systems towards applications in actuarial science, financial stochastics, optimal stopping and free-boundary problems in theoretical and applied finance, stochastic filtering and smoothing, estimation of Markov chains with covariates dependent transition intensity matrix and their general mixtures, maximum likelihood recursive estimation under incomplete information. He was a visiting scholar, among others, to NYU Stern in April-May 2025, September 2019; Mathematical Institute, University of Copenhagen in February 2020, IEOR Department of Columbia University in May 2014, DAAD visiting scholar to Mathematical Institute of Goethe University of Frankfurt in October-November 2013.

PhD candidate Magdalena Winklhofer at the Department of Biosciences, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, is defending the thesis 'The Role of DNA Methylation and Long Non-Coding RNAs in Regulating Transcriptional Responses to Anoxia and Reoxygenation in Crucian Carp' for the degree of PhD.
