    SalmoSV: Unveiling the evolutionary and functional impact of genomic structural variants of Atlantic salmon
    The objective of this project is to reveal which and how genomic structural variants have driven adaptive evolution with the functional advantage in domesticated Atlantic salmon.

    LEPRESNOR - Role of zoonotic Leptospira spp. in Norway from a One Health perspective and their host-pathogen interactions
    Leptospirosis is a zoonosis caused by bacteria called Leptospira. We want to clarify the role of possible maintenance hosts for the disease in Norway and understand the pathogens' virulence mechanisms better.
