Sandve-lab
CIGENE|IHA|BIOVIT|NMBU
Our research revolves around how genomes evolve and how genomic variation is linked to phenotypic variation, adaptation, and evolution of traits.
Currently the lab has projects on:
- consequences of whole genome duplication on genome evolution in vertebrates
- development and regulation of seawater tolerance in anadromous Atlantic salmon
- impact of host-microbiome interactions for Atlantic salmon metabolism
Lab updates
January 2020
- New preprint out: We find associations between the gut microbiome and host metabolism in Atlantic salmon. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.02.10.941245v1
- Yes! We got the ImproveAFish project funded by NFR-havbruk. Together with Phil Pope, Torgeir Hvidsten (and others) we will interrogate host-microbiome interactions in Atlantic salmon.
- My first sabatical has started! Im in the Skarmeta-lab in Sevilla to learn about how to apply Hi-ChiP experiments to my favourite research question: consequences of WGD on genome regulatory evolution!!
- Two great guys will join our research group! Welcome Marius (PhD) and Alex (postdoc).
