My research group focuses on using machine learning methods and large genomics datasets to model how genes interact in regulatory networks and how such networks give rise to properties characteristic to individuals and species. For more details see my web site.

Projects
A joint ERA-Net (BlueBio CoFund) and Havbruk project that seeks to improve aquaculture sustainability by modulating the feed-microbiome-host axis in Fish.
This project combines novel methane-inhibiting feed ingredients, animal experiments and holo-omics to jointly analyze cows, their feed and their microbes.
We aim to understand the process of wood formation in angiosperm and gymnosperm tree species by modelling the regulatory networks orchestrating the differentiation of stem cells into woody tissues.
How can we increase the omega-3 content of salmon that are fed sustainable feeds? A brand new map of the salmon's genome makes it much easier to characterize heritable differences in how well different salmon families utilize the various nutrients.
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.
