New method implemented at PROBE (30.10.2009)
In connection with the Norwegian National Protomics Meeting 26th-27th Hasmik Keshishian from Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard was an invited speaker. After the meeting she remained in Bergen to assist PROBE in setting up the Targeted protein quantification method Multiple Reaction Monitoring (MRM) in a state of the art manner. This method is now available at PROBE.
Deadline postponed until 16th November 23.59. Call for projects using biobank samples to perform proteomics analysis (15.10.2009)
The board of FUGE (the Functional Genomics programme of Norway) has granted 2,3 mill NOK to be distributed to research projects in order stimulate use of bio bank material in proteomic research. This is part of the effort to stimulate researchers to utilize multiple FUGE platforms in their research and to encourage contact and interdisciplinary cooperation between the different technology...

From Molecule to Man, a large scale imaging core facility in Bergen (23.07.2009)
The partners in Medviz and the Molecular Imaging Centre (MIC) together aim to establish a large scale core facility, From Molecule to Man, for medical imaging in Bergen. The facility will comprise all relevant imaging modalities from molecular imaging to clinical scanners as well as all the relevant support functions and will have open access to all Norwegian researchers. It is now up to the NRC... Read more
Tools towards image based systems biology
New Bioimaging Informatics effort at MIC (23.07.2009)
There is a current imbalance between an auto-/semiautomated image acquisition processes and de facto manual image analysis. MIC, through a concerted effort with the UiB and BCCS, bioinformatics environment, aims to establish easy access and user support to state-of-the-art bioimaging software tools for (i) storage, (ii) retrieval, (iii) auto-mated analysis and (iv) visualization of the rapidly...
