Dear colleagues!

We are looking forward to the Christmas party on December 9 – remember to register!
2022 Påmeldingsskjema- IBMs julefest 9 desember (uib.no) And – be prepared to participate in the HSE day earlier the same day!

Our warmest congratulations to our newest researcher and teacher, Olga Therese Ousdal! A few days ago, she received the Prize for young researchers from Helse Vest. She brings her research in the biomedical field between radiology, neurology, and psychiatry into our department, and we are excited to see the development of her research!

The scientific staff will gather on Thursday, December 1, for a Strategy Day. It will be several important discussions, such as the future organisation of both research and teaching. These are fundamental topics, and such gatherings are essential for us to find the best solutions through open discussions.

I usually point to the “Pedagogisk påfyll” from the Center for Medical Education (Enhet for læring). This time I will emphasise the talk on “Emotions in teaching”, December 8. A substantial amount of research has been done on students, but teachers’ emotions related to teaching tasks have not been extensively addressed. This is in focus in a UiB project that I am involved in myself.

Remember:
