Dei fleste tenester og program som me bruker dagleg vert stadig meir digitalisert. Dette stiller krav til utforminga av slike løysingar slik at flest mogeleg er i stand til å bruke desse og slik delta aktivt og sjølvstendig i samfunnet. Digital kompetanse og universell utforming er ei forutsetning for digital deltaking. Digital deltaking krev kunnskap og oppfølging av både dei som bruker og dei som tilbyr digitale tenester.

Universell utforming av innhald på våre sider vil seia at det skal formast ut på ein slik måte at det skal kunna brukast av alle studentar og tilsette. Dette er eit lovpålagt krav. Nytt frå 2023 er eit krav om at alle nettstader skal ha ei tilgjengelegheitserklæring. Du vil sjå at desse dukkar opp ved stadig fleire nettstader framover. Men hovudjobben er å få alle innhaldsprodusentane våre til å laga innhald som er universelt forma ut, i langt større grad enn det er i dag. Då er det behov for kursing og bevisstgjering.

Innleiarar

Frå UiB Universell kjem Ellen Lien og Simon Hestenes Eika med både ei teoretisk og praktisk tilnærming til Universell utforming ved UiB.

  • Generelt: Kva betyr kravet om Universell utforming for både administrativt og vitskapeleg tilsette?
  • Praktisk: Korleis lage universelt utforma Word-dokument, PDF, Powerpoint eller sider i Mitt UiB?
  • André Giæver Kvalvågnes frå produksjon ved UiB Læringslab skal konkret ta for seg teksting av video.

Om påmelding
Når du melder deg på, får du ein e-post med Zoom-lenke til arrangementet. Me anbefaler at du registrerer deg seinast 15 minutt før møtet startar.

Seminarserie hos Senter for ernæring, torsdag 9. mars

Senter for ernæring har gleden av å invitere til et nytt seminar i vår seminarrekke. Serien tar opp sentrale utfordringer innen ernæring og helse.

Tittel: Advanced methods to delineate complex microbial communities towards clinical application

Foreleser: Dr Alfonso Benítez-Páez, biolog og biokjemiker, the Principe Felipe Research Center in Valencia, Spaina

Moderatorer: Gülen Arslan Lied og Birgitte Berentsen

Tid: Torsdag 9. mars 2023 kl. 14.30-15.30

Sted: Aud. 4, BB-bygget

The cost-effective massive and parallel sequencing methods based on bacterial 16S rRNA gene amplicons have been crucial in uncovering the enormous diversity of microorganisms inhabiting the human body. They have been applied for years in hundreds of human cohorts to seek associations between microbiota and health states. Despite the broad application, these methods reached their full flourish years ago. Nowadays, they cannot describe the species present in complex microbial communities associated with human samples in a detailed manner. Consequently, it is necessary to implement a new generation of molecular methods and data analysis to fill the gap in establishing specific associations between species and disease conditions, reducing the ambiguity and uncertainty of such predicted links.

We present a novel, cost-effective molecular method to discriminate species and strain level variation in human-associated microbial communities. The rigorous control of significant covariates recognized to impact the human microbiota is imperative to ascertain the biomarkers pursuit for clinical application accurately.

Dr Alfonso Benítez-Páez is a biologist and biochemist with a PhD in Molecular Biology from the University Autonomous of Madrid. He is the Principal Investigator of the Host-Microbe Interactions in Metabolic Health laboratory at the Principe Felipe Research Center in Valencia, Spain. Appointed Tenure Scientist for the Spanish National Research Council. His investigation is based on establishing interactions among diet, human microbiota and health and disease states. He has multidisciplinary expertise in microbiology, molecular biology, computational biology, and data analysis. Currently, he is part of the Editorial Boards of Frontiers in Nutrition, Frontiers in microbiology, and Microbiome journal.

Det blir lett servering.

New course: NEUROSYSM940 – Philosophy of precision/systems medicine

Foto/ill.: DALL-E, Benedicte Engen

Philosophy of precision/systems medicine

We invite you to join us for a course on the philosophy of precision/systems medicine. This course is specifically designed for biomedical researchers, physicians, and academics who are interested in exploring the ethical, social, and historical roots and implications of emerging technoscientific medical practices, such as precision/systems medicine.

The promises and prospects of precision/systems medicine raises important ethical and societal issues for philosophical discussions. Throughout the course, you will have the opportunity to bring your own questions, challenges and dilemmas from your research and practice, and discuss them in broader philosophical and historical contexts. The course will introduce you to the concept of responsible research and innovation (RRI) and its relevance to precision/systems medicine and the ongoing convergence of postgenomic biotechnology and data science.

During the course, we will explore how precision/systems medicine is affecting the understanding of disease and suffering, and thus, research and clinical practices. Additionally, we will explore ethical dilemmas of precision/systems medicine for researchers, clinicians, patients, and society at large.

This is a unique opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the complexities of precision/systems medicine and its impact on human disease and suffering, and to engage in meaningful discussions with your peers. We hope you will join us for a thought-provoking interdisciplinary course. Our aim is to stimulate discussions and reflections that can open up new ways of relating to contemporary research and clinical practices.

Upon completion the course provides 2 ECTS to be used in the training component for PhD candidates .

Bibliotekkurs for ansatte våren 2023

Bibliotek for medisin tilbyr kurs til ansatte ved Det medisinske fakultetet, og ansatte ved Helse Bergen, våren 2023 – meld deg på!

  • Introduksjon til Endnote
  • Søkekurs i PubMed og Embase
  • Introduksjon til systematiske oversikter
  • Litteraturstudier for studenter

Kursene skal holdes som hybridløsning, hvor det er mulighet for å delta både fysisk og digitalt via Zoom. Kursene er fortrinnsvis for ansatte og stipendiater. De fleste studenter får bibliotekkurs som en del av sin studieplan. Dersom ikke det er tilfelle kan de melde seg på disse kursene. Det siste kurset er spesielt for studenter som vil vite mer om litteraturoppgaver, og som ikke har hatt eget kurs om det.

Kursdatoer, påmelding og mer informasjon finnes på https://www.uib.no/ub/126018/kurs-og-veiledning#kurs-med-p-melding

Innhold i kursene:

Introduksjon til EndNote: I kurset lærer du å bygge opp et EndNote-bibliotek og lage en referanseliste i Word. Kurset består av korte demonstrasjoner og praktiske øvelser. Kurset dekker: Lage et EndNote-bibliotek, importere referanser, manuell innlegging, lage grupper, finne fulltekst, sette inn referanser i en tekst, lage og formatere en litteraturliste.

Søkekurs i PubMed og Embase: Alle bruker PubMed, men med litt ekstra kunnskap kan du gjøre mer effektive søk. I kurset viser vi for eksempel hvordan du kan bruke emneordene MeSH, eller utnytte filtre i Clinical queries. Embase er den andre store medisinske artikkeldatabasen som dekker en del andre tidsskrifter enn PubMed/Medline. Embase er derfor et viktig supplement til PubMed.

Introduksjon til systematiske oversikter (systematic reviews): Kurset gir en introduksjon i temaet systematiske oversikter. Vi gjennomgår ulike databaser for å finne systematiske oversikter, og prosessen å selv utføre en systematisk oversikt som å skrive en protokoll, forberedelser til søking, tips og verktøy for datahåndtering og kvalitetsvurdering, og rapportering. Vi gir også informasjon om hvilken hjelp og støtte biblioteket kan gi i arbeidet med systematiske oversikter.

Litteraturstudier for studenter: Kurset er til studenter som skal skrive litteraturoppgave som bachelor- eller masteroppgave, og som ikke har fått eget kurs som del av studieprogrammet. Vi går gjennom prosessen i en litteraturoppgave. Kurset dekker forberedelsene til et litteratursøk, hvordan du skal arbeide deg gjennom alle treff og hvordan du skal dokumentere metodene. Vi ser på noen eksempler og svarer på spørsmål.

Vennlig hilsen
Bibliotek for medisin, BBB


Courses offered at the Medical library, Autumn 2023:

  • Introduction to Endnote
  • Searching in PubMed and Embase
  • Introduction to systematic reviews
  • Literature studies for Bachelor and Master students (in Norwegian)

The courses are planned as a hybrid solution, with the option of attending either physically or online through Zoom. The courses are mainly for employees and PhD candidates at the Faculty of Medicine and for employees at Helse Bergen. Courses for students are normally given as a part of their study program. If that isn’t the case, they can attend these courses as well. The courses are free of charge, but registration is necessary for our planning.

Dates, registration and more information can be found on the library’s web pages:

Courses in English: https://www.uib.no/en/ub/128609/courses-and-guidance#courses-requiring-registration

Courses in Norwegian: https://www.uib.no/ub/126018/kurs-og-veiledning#kurs-med-p-melding

Short description:

Introduction to EndNote: EndNote is a tool for managing references. The course covers how to build your own EndNote library, how to use references from EndNote in the writing process with Word, formatting the text and generating literature lists.. Other functionalities like manually adding references, grouping, removing duplicates, and importing full text will also be covered.

Searching in PubMed and Embase: Everyone can use PubMed. However, with some extra knowledge you can search more efficiently. In the course we demonstrate the use of subject headings MeSH, and the use of filters for quick limiting to clinical queries (like diagnostic studies, or intervention studies). Embase is another important medical database which covers a number of different journals than PubMed/Medline. Therefore, Embase is a valuable supplement to PubMed, if you want to get a better overview over the literature within your field.

Introduction to systematic reviews: The course gives an introduction to systematic reviews. The library presents several databases for finding systematic reviews, and gives an overview over the process of doing your own systematic review: write a protocol, prepare the search, data management, quality appraisal, and guidelines for reporting. We will also inform about the role of the library in the different phases of the work with a systematic review.

Literature studies for Bachelor and Master students (in Norwegian): This course is for students who chose literature study as their bachelor- or master thesis, and have not yet be offered a course as part of their study program. We teach about the process in a literature study. The course covers preparational work before literature searching, how to manage and work with the search results, and how to document the methods used.

Kind regards from the Medical library

The UiB University Library continues its popular webinar series on the principles of Open Science in autumn 2022. Open science is a research practice where processes and results are openly available under conditions that promotes sharing, use, cooperation, and societal responsibility.

Starting Friday August 19th at 10:00 CET, the Open Science webinar series will take place every other week during the autumn semester. Please follow the links for more information and to sign up for the webinars. We are looking forward to seeing you!

The UiB University Library and its Digital Lab offer a wide range of interesting courses and events – please find more information in the calendar.

Data management Plans

Data management plan (DMP) describes how data in a research project will be collected, processed, and made available. Writing a DMP is good scientific practice which helps structuring the data management in a research project and a requirement by research funders, e.g. The Norwegian Research Council or Horizon Europe. See also our information page UiB Library – Data Management Plans.

How to make your data open & FAIR
Researchers are encouraged to make their data openly available as early as possible in the research process, and most funders, e.g. Norwegian Research Council or Horizon Europe, and publishers require that the research data from a project is made openly available. In the course you will get an introduction to how you can make your research data open and FAIR, and how to archive your data in our institutional archive UiB Open Research Data. See also our information page UiB Library – Open Access to Research Data.

Open Access publishing step-by-step

Governments, institutions, and research funders expect researchers to make their research openly available. What is open access, why should you make your research publications openly available and what services and support is available at UiB?

Make your research visible using researcher profiles
Having a researcher profile is a great way to showcase contributions to your field and open science engagement. This seminar will demonstrate how to use ORCID and other researcher profiles to showcase your work.
