Inspiring the next generation of biologists! Today our group member Clare Andvik held a presentation at the Universitetet i Oslo open day about what it is like to study Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo at @unioslo_mn - and specifically her research on killer whales and pollutants. Lots of interested students!

We are happy to have contributed to this great new study on killer whale diet!

Read more about our Norges forskningsråd project #multiwhale 🐳 in Titan titan.uio.no/naturvitenskap… This whale is named Skye - she & her offspring are helping us understand the effect of multiple stressors in Norwegian killer whales. Knowledge about individuals is essential!🐳

Our group has been busy spreading science at SETAC Dublin this week! Thanks for a great week @SETAC_world !

🚨NEW PAPER🚨 🇦🇶🛳️With climate change meaning the Arctic is becoming increasingly accessible to shipping, how can the supporting port infrastructure be developed in an environmentally responsible and sustainable way, with Arctic communities involved from the outset? 🧵1/3

Gender reveal!🥳🐳 Psyched that a causal lunchtime chat with Adam Warner Raincoast Conservation Foundation at #PSEC ended with us determining sex in ALL our Norwegian orca samples today! 🤩🐳 Sneaky subadults - your secret is out! 😏😆 So cool to get value from every tiny leftover DNA!🤩 Thank you!🙏

Big congratulations Amalie for your excellent master defense today Katrine Borgå Borgå Ecotox Research Group Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo Conducting a long term 3-stressor experiment with Arctic zooplankton was fascinating but highly challenging. You made it all!! The Nansen Legacy

It is so great when our group members have the opportunity to travel to other countries and labs!

All samples for this cool work were collected by #norwegianorcasurvey as part of our Norges forskningsråd funded project MULTIWHALE Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo Borgå Ecotox Research Group 🐳🐳🐳

Attention UiO friends! Universitetet i Oslo MN Faculty: Research @unioslo_mn Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo Don't miss Leanne Rosser Leanne Rosser talking about her dolphin research in Japan, and this >> cool paper tomorrow at the AQUA/CEES double seminar! 13:15-15:00 in room 4426, Kristine Bonnevies hus 🐬

On behalf of our research group, I will be giving a plenary talk about Seasonal and climate change effects on pollutant accumulations and effects in the Arctic marine food web. Exciting updates on #winter #multiple_stressors #pollutants, #TippingPoint #Arctic

Great talk today by Khuong V. Dinh from Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo at the The Nansen Legacy Symposium in Tromsø. Khuong Dinh talked about "Seasonal and Climate Change Effects on Pollution Accumulation and Effects in the Arctic Marine Food Web": nansenlegacy-symposium.com/program/progra…

So many inspiring talks, research, and stories at the Nansen Legacy Symposium in the lovely city Tromsø! Millions of thanks!!

Our #winter_research adventure continues today with Mathieu and Sophie joining the #Polar_Front Cruise. While I am proud of our winter expeditions and research, I fully aware of how challenging it can be with low temperatures, strong winds, waves and darkness Arctic winter 1/2

We acknowledge the support of the Norges forskningsråd for their support our master student, Sophie Albertsen, for a newly approved Arctic Field Grant!

Happy to announce the publication of our paper on phthalate contamination in marine mammals from Norway in #Marine #Pollution Bulletin sciencedirect.com/science/articl… @curious_smolt and I are co-first authors 😀 Summary of results here in my v. first infographic 🙈📊📈

In this ES&T study, Clare Andvik, Katrine Borgå and team at Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo Universitetet i Oslo investigate the intercorrelations of chlorinated parrafins, dechloranes, and legacy #PersistentOrganicPollutants in different marine mammal species. #bioaccumulation #OpenAccess: go.acs.org/av8

🚨 New paper alert 🚨🥳🙌 We measured pollution levels in 10 species of marine mammals from Norway 🐳🐬🦭 See our video for the “general public” study summary 🫶 & keep reading ⬇️ for more details 🤓 #Openaccess Environmental Science & Technology Journals go.acs.org/av8 #norwegianorcasurvey

This project was funded by Klima- og miljødep’s #Arktis2030 programme and was a collaboration between Universitetet i Oslo Department of Biosciences, University of Oslo , #norwegianorcasurvey , @UniNMBU , @NILU_now and Havforskningsinstituttet . Supervised by Katrine Borgå from Borgå Ecotox Research Group and non-X Eve Jourdain 🐳

We looked at levels & intercorrelations of #legacy #PersistentOrganicPollutants, #dechloranes & #ChlorinatedParaffins SCCPs & dechloranes positively correlated with recalcitrant POPs to a stronger extent than MCCPs or LCCPs, but all were surprisingly unrelated to dietary niche
