Using technology to map ice algae
Life is thriving in the Arctic beneath ice. At the base of the food web is Ice algae. They are an important food source for life in the arctic sea, and flourish in this extreme environment. Modern technology gives us exciting possibilities to learn more about them and how they have adapted to their environment.
Birds and bugs: Trapping and tracking the vital insect food for young birds
Spring has turned into summer quickly and the insects which are vital food for bird chicks are here. While recent studies have drawn attention to dramatic declines of entire insect populations, little is known about consequences for other species depending on insects for food, including many birds, which may face the same plight.
Å bygge en biobank
Ved Institutt for biologiske fag Ålesund (IBA) ved NTNU i Ålesund bygger vi opp en kontinuerlig voksende biobank for å langtidslagre prøvematerialer av norsk oppdrettslaks.
The Kavli Prize to pioneers in Electron Microscopy!
Congratulations to the four researchers who were awarded the Kavli Prize in Nanoscience on Wednesday 27 May 2020!
Harald Rose, Max Haider, Ondrej Krivanek and Knut Urban received the Kavli Prize for realizing sub-Ångstrøm imaging and chemical analysis in transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using aberration correction. Their work makes it possible to «see» atoms.
Kavli-prisen 2020 til pionerer innen elektronmikroskopi!
Gratulerer til de fire som onsdag 27. mai 2020 ble tildelt Kavli-prisen innen nanovitenskap!
Harald Rose, Max Haider, Ondrej Krivanek og Knut Urban fikk prisen for å ha realisert sub-Ångstrøm avbildning og kjemisk analyse i transmisjonselektronmikroskopi (TEM) ved hjelp av aberrasjonskorreksjon.

Fremtidens teknologer sett gjennom pandemiens briller
Krisen vi nå går gjennom på grunn av spredningen av Covid-19 er et slående eksempel på en type utfordringer som fremtidens kandidater fra NTNU i økende grad må være i stand til å håndtere.
Removing sticky droplets and making super repellent surfaces
NTNU research has come closer to making a surface that is self-cleaning even when there is strong humidity. To achieve this, we have combined pyramidical structures with nanowire structures in the nano lab.
