The emeriti at the Department of Biosciences are a highly valued resource, and they have now got new premises in the Kristine Bonnevies House. The new offices are bright and pleasant, and all of the furniture is recycled.

During Christmas, there are short working days and limited capacity. At IBV, the expedition, IT and the purchasing office have closed all or partially during Christmas.

The University of Oslo have long worked to reduce the energy consumption. High energy prices and increased costs has made it necessary to introduce new measures, with the aim of further reducing the usage. This is how IBV is affected by the new measures.

How can the working environment be improved? Please answer the ARK questionaire to let us know what you think. This is important in order to create a good working environment for everyone!
