I am the library contact for Mathematics and Informatics, providing courses and guidance in information literacy, literature search, scholarly publishing, and reference management for students and researchers. You can ask for individual guidance, send me an email with your request, or come to my office at the Science and Technology Library for a chat.

As part of the research support team, I provide guidance on Open Science and Research Data Management. We regularly provide courses e.g. on Data Management Planning (DMP), FAIR and open research data, FAIR for research software (FAIR4RS), good data management routines in research projects, and finding and reuse of existing research data. You can find upcoming open courses in the calendar or request a tailored course.
Please feel free to contact us at research-data@uib.no for questions or to request guidance.

My PhD and postdoctoral research was in the field of cell- and molecular biology and immunology.

I teach and provide training for students and researchers on different aspects of information literacy, reference management, Open Science practices, FAIR research data, and Research Data Management. Some of my presentations are available on Zenodo.

I am certified Software Carpentry instructor, which I teach at the UiB Library Digital Lab.
