What determines whether a fish migrates into the sea or not? Research breakthrough published in Nature Ecology & Evolution provides significant new insights.
This summer, BIOVIT/IHA’s Research group Ethology and Animal Environment will organise a world congress on behaviour and welfare of farm animals in Bergen – in collaboration with NMBU/VETMED, Animalia, NIBIO, The Veterinary Institute (VI) and the Marine Research Institute (HI).
NMBU has received 20 million NOK in funding for two spin-off projects for Foods of Norway: one on salmon health and one on the sustainability of novel feeds.
This project aims to build a knowledge platform for Norway to facilitate production and value creation from plant based protein-rich resources to future food products.
The purpose of the centre is to promote research and education on the social, environmental, economic and ecological dimensions of urban agriculture and sustainable circular economy
The centre offers training and assignments related to Light Microscopy, Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy, Laser Micro Dissection Microscope, Scanning and Transmission Electron Microscopy.
In the REWIRED project, we will use salmonid fish, which underwent a genome duplication 100 million years ago, as a model system to study the importance of genome duplication in evolution of new gene functions and adaptation.
The LabTek Group is a group of technical staff that covers a large field of expertise. Here you will find an overview of the analyses on offer with method and job description
The centre for fish research is a modern centre for small scale fish experiments. The centre has specially adapted facilities for feed research, RAS technology (recycling of water for aquaculture) and the use of isotopes as a tracking method in fish. The centre also has an isolated quarantine station for emergency preparedness.
Faculty of Biosciences has a long standing cooperation with Center for Feed Technology (Fôrtek), who is a international centre for feed technology owned by the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU).
Faculty of Biosciences has a long standing cooperation with Center for livestock production, who is the national establishment for experiments and education in livestock production (In Norwegian).
The centre offers training and assignments related to Light Microscopy, Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy, Laser Micro Dissection Microscope, Scanning and Transmission Electron Microscopy.
About the faculty
Faculty of Biosciences contributes to the shape of future food production through basic as well as applied research on the production and use of plants, livestock and fish.
