UiO:Life Science is the one of three institutional strategic research areas at UiO, bringing together scientists from medicine, biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, and informatics. A major step forward will be the completion of the new Life Science building, giving new opportunities for interdisciplinary collaborations.

In recent years it has become increasingly common at the university that researchers are hired not on time-limited contracts, but in stead employed in permanent positions with time limited external financing. This raises a number of questions and issues that are difficult for us as employees to anticipate at the time of employment. In this seminar, lawyers from our union will help us understand the issues surrounding termination of employment and our legal rights when facing this situation. All members of Akademikerne are welcome, but the seminar is of course most relevant to researchers in these kinds of positions.
