A Word from the Department Head

 

This week has once more been marked by exams taking place at our department. Many have put in a lot of effort into this.

 

Otherwise, I would like to wish Bjørn and Rolf good luck with the next week. Together with their colleagues from GexCon, they are arranging a conference here in Bergen (Hazards, Prevention, and Mitigation of Industrial Explosions) for 200 international researchers. Let it be a great success.

 

Have a great Pentecost weekend,

Øyvind

NorRen Summer Schoool

In cooperation with CoSSMic, NorRen has the joy of inciting all PhD students working with renewable energy and are connected to one of the Norwegian universities, to NorRen interdisciplinary summer school. It will, be taking place from August 11-15 at Holmen Fjordhotell in Asker. As mentioned earlier, the school is primarily aimed at PhD students, but is also open to young researchers within the field of renewable energy. More information is available from this link.

Staff

We have the honour of welcoming one new colleague to our department:

Ganesh Tambave has been employed as PostDoc in micro electronics / experimental detector physics as of 3rd June 2014 until 2nd June 2018. During his PhD, he studied the electromagnetic calorimetry for PANDA.  Ganesh will be working with Professor Dieter Röhrich’s group and and will work on the project «ALICE TPC for future LHC run
