EvoFish
EvoFish was established in 2007 with a grant from the Bergen Research Foundation. We are a small but dynamic and well-linked group, both locally, nationally as well as internationally.

Research
Our research relies on three, complementary approaches: experiments, theoretical modelling, and statistical analyses of observational data from the wild.
Seminars
We have been running a joint seminar series with the Aquatic Behaviour Ecology, Theoretical Ecology, and Fisheries & Aquaculture Ecology groups. In 2013 this was merged with the departmental seminar.
Evolutionary Fisheries Ecology is a research group that brings a strong evolutionary dimension to the study of fisheries and fisheries science.
Most research in EvoFish is currently related to fisheries-induced evolution, but we are also more generally interested in fisheries ecology and evolutionary ecology.
