Ocean Science Bar is a collaboration between Statsraad Lehmkuhl, the University of Bergen, the Institute of Marine Research, NORCE, and the Nansen Center. At the Statsraaden Bar & Reception, we will present popular highlights from our research, discuss current issues related to the ocean and marine research, and provide a social meeting point for researchers and others interested in the ocean.
Events are normally, but not exclusively, organised the last Thursday each month, and usually from 19.00-20.00. The events are frequently held in English, but occationally in Norwegian.
Events will be published on this page and the ÐÒÔË·Éͧ¼Æ»® calendar.
