The dCod project participated in conferences
In September, dCod-members from Bergen travelled to two different conferences in Barcelona, Spain. As well as gaining insight into the most recent research, they also had the chance to meet old and new friends.
Main content
The first conference was the听 (ESCPB 2016), September听4.-7. Here, European scientists gathered to present new findings and discuss experiences. Marine organisms and toxic effects were the topics of many of the oral and poster听presentations, and illustrated听the actuality听of the dCod project. Impressingly, PhD student Libe Aranguren received an award for her poster on precision-cut liver slices. Congratulations!听Marta Eide and Odd Andr茅 Karlsen held platform presentations about the chemical defensome of cod and the results from an exposure study using PCB153听(part of the听iCod 2.0听project). We also took the chance to meet our friends and dCod partners at the听CSIC: Cinta Porte, Maria Blanco Rubio, Denise Fernandes, and Elisabet Perez-Albaladejo.
The following week, September听16.-20.,听the听听took place. Scientists from all over the world presented their work on the听new and exciting field听of system biology. The dCod project was听represented by听Fekadu Yadetie (Dept. of Bio),听Fatemeh Ghavidel (Dept. of Inf)听og Guttorm Alendal, Shirin Fallahi og H氓vard Fr酶ysa (all from Dept. of Math).
