HySchool Days are the annual networking events organized by HySchool – the Norwegian Research School on Hydrogen and Hydrogen-Based Fuels. HySchool Days 2025 was held in Porsgrunn, bringing together over 100 participants from industry, academia and research institutes.
Thursday and Friday last week was the annual gathering of national research schools. This year it was organized in Bergen by the research schools HySchool, BSRS, NORBARN, and INRESCOS.
Rogue or freak waves (monster waves) are exceptionally large waves that can suddenly loom into existence, seemingly from nowhere. Are these waves truly different from ordinary storm waves, or are they just what you should expect to see if you wait long enough?
A brilliant idea led nanophysicist Bodil Holst to investigate why polar bear fur doesn't freeze. Now, her research on the deicing properties of polar bear fur has been published as the cover story in Science Advances.

Coral reefs produce a lot of oxygen during the day (thanks to photosynthesis), but at night the oxygen levels decrease. Can this threaten fishes at the reef, or do they have strategies to survive? To find out we spent six months of fieldwork and experiments on the island of Moorea in French Polynesia.
Starting October 1, the new name will be the Faculty of Science and Technology. We will certainly celebrate this!
The Antarctic ice shelves – the floating glaciers surrounding most of the continent – are melting from below as oceanic currents bring warm water into the cavity. But how and how fast is the ice melting? In this Ocean Science Bar, you will learn why Antarctic ice shelves matter, about what happens below them, and about what it’s like to do fieldwork ”down south”.
Light is probably the most varying environmental variable in pelagic ecosystems, and the most ignored in ecological studies. In this Ocean Science Bar, you will learn how light structures the distribution of zooplankton and fish.
Deep sea research is a gateway to unlocking mysteries both within our planet and beyond, offering insights that can have profound implications for science, industry, and our understanding of life in the universe.
Last Wednesday marked the conclusion of the first subject offered by the course portfolio of HySchool, PK8452 - Hydrogen Energy Technology at NTNU. The course enrolled 22 PhD students from 6 universities, each specialising in various facets of the hydrogen value chain.
On Friday 2 June 2023, HySchool co-hosted the annual seminar for the national Forum for Research School Administrators in Bergen, together with the research schools NutriNOR and NSRGH (both from the University of Bergen). The seminar brought together administrative coordinators from research schools across the country.
