I am a researcher working in the field of genomics of Salmon salar. During my earlier years I did spend a lot of time in the lab. However, now I’m mostly sitting in front of the computer analyzing data. My main interests are omics data as well as gene annotations.
Currently I am working on the DigiSal project, which is part of Digital Life. I am also working on a project that aims to better understand the host parasite relation for S.salar and L.salmonis (sea louse)

Projects
Systems biology will aid sustainability in salmon farming. Scarcity of fish oil has forced development of novel feedstuffs, challenging the salmon's metabolism as well as our understanding of it.
