The real taste of biology
Project description A focus of our group has been the study of Stit, Drosophila RET, its role in cell migration and novel observations made by the lab earlier1. We use Drosophila melanogaster, where we can overexpress and/or knock down a gene of interest in a specific area within an epithelial tissue using the GAL4/UAS expression Read More …
Often when we characterize plant growth and development, we focus on the above-ground, but less-so on the below-ground. Join us in exploring the blow-ground world! Read More …
With the encroachment of the arctic, we are seeing a drastic change in once stable carbon systems, moving into a positive feedback loop causing worsening of our climate. Come join us in our journey to understand this cycle! Read More …

Would you like to learn more about how plants strategically allocate their carbon resources across climatic gradients? Read More …
Would you like to be involved in a project studying how birds and invertebrates interact amidst climate and habitat change? We need help collecting and processing key invertebrates in birds’ trophic network, including tree-dwelling prey insects and nest-dwelling ectoparasites. There even might be occasional opportunities to assist with bird nest monitoring! Read More …
What functions do various species of pollinators serve in contributing to pollination services within Norwegian apple orchards? This project offers an opportunity to gain hands-on field experience in pollination ecology (spring 2024). Read More …
How much carbon can heathland ecosystems reabsorbe? In this project you will get both field and lab experience. Read More …
We are investigating underground biomass, decomposition and respiration in alpine grasslands, in context of grazing and climate change. We need help digging out tea bags, root cores and measuring carbon flux. It is fun manual work in a stunning landscape with some interesting homemade setups. Read More …
Improve your vegetation skills while working in a beautiful alpine grassland! Project INCLINE is looking for someone who is eager to learn about alpine ecology and experience a week of field work with a fantastic team. Read More …
Vi opplever en stor nedgang i antall insekter i verden, men det er ofte vanskelig å tallfeste denne nedgangen på en etterrettelig måte. Spørsmålet vi stiller i dette prosjektet er om vi ser samme nedgangen for nattsommerfugler i Norge som har blitt observert for insekter i andre deler av verden. Read More …

Globle endringer er på vei og hvordan de påvirker karbonlagringen i fjellet er fremdeles uvisst! Bli med og hjelp meg med mitt masterprosjekt der jeg skal finne ut av hvor karbonet tar veien når det har kommet inn i økosystemet når de globale endringene er i gang. Read More …
The winter blind spot: what’s going on under the snow in the mountains during winter? Is everything frozen and quietly waiting for spring? Let’s find out! Read More …
Depositions of ammonia and nitrogen oxides have heavily increased since the mid 1900’s, and nitrogen additions in grasslands have shown to affect grass biomass, soil pH and nutrient availability. But how do these grasslands recover if nitrogen additions stop, and for how long does the added nitrogen stay in the systems? Read More …
