Interview with Professor Odd Helge Gilja Interview with Professor Odd Helge Gilja Background Odd Helge Gilja became interested in photography, imaging and technology already in his childhood. Inspired by the pioneering nature photographer Sverre M. Fjelstad, who had very popular weekly programs at the only Norwegian TV channel at that time, Odd Helge purchased his first single-lens reflex camera (Konica T3) as a confirmation gift. Later, when he was a pupil at Fana highschool, Odd Helge joined the photography club “Spektrum”. Already in secondary school, he chose electronics as optional topic, demonstrating also an emerging interest in technology. -So, these early interests in technology and photography have also inspired you in your professional career as medical doctor? -Yes, I believe there is a link between my joy of observations in nature, where you have to use both your eyes and ears actively, and my observations of patients in the clinic. We do not only depend on instruments in the clinic, but are also aware of visible symptoms, e.g. skin spots or lesions, and the patient’s behavior and state. However, the ultrasound (US) scanner is a wonderful supplementary technology and gives the physicists many opportunities in both diagnosis and treatment. Actually, I had an early aspiration for studying at NTH in Trondheim before I decided to start my medical studies in Bergen. After my internship at SSSF in Førde in 1989 and following an initial resident period at Dept. of Medicine at HUS, I worked as research fellow at Christian Michelsen Research AS in 1993, financed by a fellowship from NTNF, to focus on the development of 3D US. This was indeed, a true combination of medicine and technology, and gave me further motivation for convergence and trans-disciplinary research between different areas of competence, Odd Helge tells. Professor Odd Helge Gilja in action in the gastroenterology clinic at HUH. Background for MedViz -Based on my previous good experience with CMR, I later was matched with Christopher Giertsen, who had been working on applications of 3D technology in oil wells. We joined forces in 2005, during the 75th anniversary of CMR, with the scope to establish a new concept in Bergen within advanced visualization and medicine, Odd Helge memorizes. -We talked to a huge number of potentially interested colleagues at UiB and HUS and decision makers (Kåre Rommetveit, Anne Kverneland Bogsnes, Odd Søreide, Stener Kvinnsland, Torleiv Kløve, Petter Bjørstad, Arvid Nøttvedt, Alfred Halstensen and others) and potential industrial partners (Nordic NeuroLab, GE Wingmed, Statoil, Norsk Hydro). Based on this idea phase, we published the report “Skisse til en ny Bergensbasert FoU- satsing innen analyse og visualisering av medisinske data” (Gilja & Giertsen, October 2005). The report gave an overview of several R&D groups dealing with research and development within analyses and visualization of medical data in Norway, with particular attention to groups in Bergen. We listed a number of work tasks to be carried out in order to develop a strong and coordinated Bergen research consortium, and concluded that an annual financing of 10 mill. NOK per annum in five years would be needed. We also established the vision: Å fremskaffe endtydige visuelle beslutningsgrunnlag for diagnostikk og behandling. Or in the English short version: From vision to decision. Professor Odd Helge Gilja was one of the founders of MedViz and has since the establishment in 2007 been its chairman and scientific director. -Through good support from Arvid Lundervold, Elin Myhrvold Riple, Dag Magne Ulvang, Torfinn Taxt, Paul Ludvig Muren, Anfinn Mehus, Eduard Gröller, Knut Matre, Erlend Hodneland, Antonella Zanna Munthe-Kaas, Yngve Kvinnsland, Svein Ødegaard, Ola Øye and Renate Grüner, MedViz was established in 2006 and the first gathering was around a Christmas dinner, a tradition that still is alive. Ole Amundsen from the HUH Communication Dept. helped us in designing the MedViz logo. Our slogan From Vision to Decision can also be illustrated by the bird bearded vulture (Gypaetus barbatus, or ‘lammegribb’ in Norwegain) from Eastern Africa and Eurasia, with a wingspan up to 2,8 m. The bearded vulture has learned to crack bones too large to be swallowed by carrying them in flight to a height of 50–150 m above the ground and then dropping them onto rocks below, which smashes them into smaller pieces and exposes the nutritious marrow. This is the only living bird species that has specialized in feeding on marrow, and by help of its sharp vision, it takes quick and smart decisions, Odd Helge explains. The MedViz slogan From Vision to Decision can be illustrated by the bird bearded vulture (lammegribb) Photo: OH Gilja. -The first MedViz Conference was arranged at Villa Skjoldnes at Nordåsvannet in 2007, so in 2016 we arranged the 10th MedViz Conference. In 2008 we arranged theMedViz Opening Conference at Vil Vite Centre, formally opened by Stener Kvinnsland and including 72 participants. In June 2009 the Consortium Agreement was signed by our three mother institutions UiB, HUH and CMR. In the beginning, we had more focus on software development, however, this activity never grew to the expected heights, Odd Helge says. Highlights and achievements by MedViz during the past 10 years -We have not succeeded in attracting really big funding to MedViz, even though we have applied for both SFF and Horizon 2020 financing. It seems like networking is a less valuated activity for the funding agencies. We are happy that Bergens forskningsstiftelse now is providing more funding to the visualization activities in Bergen by supporting a new medical visualization centre at the Radiology Department at HUH, a MedViz phase II one may say. -The monthly seminars and annual conferences have been the foundation of MedViz, as it created important meeting places for the visualization and imaging community. In this respect, I would particularly like to mention the EuroVis Conference (2011) and the combined MedViz + VCBM Conference (2016) as great international events in Bergen. We have also organized three Euroson schools in Bergen, which represent the highest accredited courses in ultrasonography. When it comes to project activity, we have previously established and financed 13 scientific projects from the seed money that we received from Helse Vest and from our mother institutions. Three of these projects have been further financed and developed into MedViz Lighthouse projects in the period 2014 – 2016. From these MedViz based platforms, the principal investigators and their teams have been able to achieve new financial support from various funding agencies. This demonstratedthat the basic MedViz funding was useful for further research funding and new innovation activities. The bridging money that we have given to support students in their intermediate phase between studies and PhD- or postdoc.-positions has also been a great success in order to withhold their competence in an academic environment in competition with industry during critical periods. 27 PhD students have furthermore carried out their studies in close association with MedViz and many of them have received direct economic support from MedViz in the period 2007 – 2016, Odd Helge tells. -A highlight from 2013 is worth mentioning, namely when researchers from MedViz won the biannual, international competition organized by Eurographics Association, to acknowledge the contribution that computer graphics is playing in the medical field, and to encourage further development. In that year the Eurographics Medical Prize was renamed to honor Dirk Bartz who passed away in 2010. The 1st prize of the Dirk Bartz Prize for Visual Computing in Medicine 2013 was achieved by the contribution High-Quality 3D Visualization of In-Situ Ultrasonography, by the cooperative partners Ivan Viola, Åsmund Birkeland, Veronika Šoltészová, Linn Helljesen, Helwig Hauser, Spiros Kotopoulis, Kim Nylund, Dag Magne Ulvang, Ola Kristoffer Øye, Trygve Hausken & Odd Helge Gilja, Odd Helge adds. -Another significant highlight in MedViz has been that we carried out the first study ever on the application of contrast microbubbles in therapy of patients with pancreas cancer. The vision of this concept was one of the cornerstones already in the early phase of MedViz. Now, we have received new financing through a prestigious project from NIH (USA): Optimizing US enhanced delivery of therapeutics (2016-2020), Odd Helge tells. -I would also like to mention a few other initiatives, besides the success of the three MedViz lighthouse projects, where MedViz has been involved: Installation of PET-CT at the PET & Nuclear Medicine Center NorBioImaging and EuroBioImaging networks MedIm PhD research school where MedViz contributed with the chairman of the steering board -A great challenge for the MedViz virtual research cluster is that we lack a physical localization in close vicinity of the different instrumental modalities in the clinic. This point was also concluded by a Nordic Evaluation Committee in 2013. Hopefully, the new Medical Visualization Centre at the Radiology Department at HUH will give opportunities for researchers to meet daily over a cup of coffee and deal with the future challenges in the hospital related to Man & Machine. It is a great pleasure for me, looking back and now handling the baton over to new Centre leader, Renate Grüner. I believe she will be able to build on the various resources in the MedViz network, most importantly the personal competences, and I wish her the very best, Odd Helge says. Your main focus in the near future -Now, that you have retracted from the position as Scientific Director of MedViz, what will be your main focus in the coming years? -Research and medical aid in developing countries is a focus area close to my heart. I have been nine times in Ethiopia so far, to teach in ultrasound, endoscopy and clinical gastroenterology, and to carry out research activities on liver diseases and malignant hepatic carcinomas, predominantly caused by hepatitis B or C.

    ”How the hell can you tell?” Norske statsministres ettermæle fra Stang til Stoltenberg. Masteroppgave Christopher Nicolai Tønnessen Institutt for sammenliknende politikk Universitetet i Bergen Vår 2011 i Fe døyr, frendar døyr, ein sjølv med. Men godt, fortent ettermæle varer ved. - Håvamål. ii Abstract This thesis tries to uncover which factors predict the reputation of Norwegian prime ministers. This is done by applying an ordinary least square regression method with robust standard errors to data from the Prime Minister Inquiry 2010 ( Statsministerundersøkelsen 2010). In the inquiry, 54 historians, journalists and political scientists were asked to assess the performance of the Norwegian prime ministers from 1873 to the present on a scale from 1 to 6, with 6 being the highest score. Furthermore, the respondents answered some questions about themselves regarding their background. My thesis is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on identifying the factors that predict the reputation of the prime ministers, dividing the explanatory variables into groups of biographical, economic and institutional factors. The second part is a study of the respondents. Here, the background questions of the inquiry are used in order to find out whether the respondents’ backgrounds affect how their rating of the prime ministers. In the first part, several significant findings are presented. I find many significant variables. Four explanatory variables are found to have significant positive effect on the reputation of the prime minister: education on the master level , older prime ministers score better than younger prime ministers and months as prime minister . Moreover, four explanatory variables have negative effects on the way in which prime ministers are remembered: high unemployment rate , support in Parliament, political scandal and if the prime minister had a bad predecessor .

    Dagre, T. (1999). The History of Norway. Millenium, 15 THE HISTORY OF NORWAY TOR DAGRE The first men to appear in what is now Norway, emerged from dim prehistory when the great inland ice sheets were retreating over Scandinavia. 10,000 years ago the forefathers of today's Norwegians hunted reindeer and other prey on their long trek north. The land they came to had for centuries borne the weight of the icecap, so the coastline was about 200 metres higher than it is today. The oldest proofs of human activity were discovered on a hill in the southeast region of Østfold, not far from the southern frontier with Sweden. At that time the hill was probably an offshore island, just south of the glacier tip. There is no general agreement on where the ancestors of today's Norwegians came from, or on the routes they took on their journey north, but one of these routes certainly passed through Østfold. Artefacts found at settlements there are of the same type that have been discovered in southern Sweden and in Denmark. A further possible route may have led from the so-called North Sea continent to southwest Norway. These first Norwegians were hunters who, wherever nature permitted it, settled in small groups. They left proof of their existence in flint tools, clay vessels, and not least, rock carvings. In every part of Norway remain specimens of their art, hewn or ground into the rock. The carvings depict their prey: reindeer, moose, deer, bears and fish. People, or boats appear only seldom.

    Torfinn Rogne Én skute, men hvilken skipper? Torfinn Rogne Torfinn Den politiske debatten og spørsmålet om ei samlingsregjering i kjølvatnet av det britiske kolforbodet i januar og februar 1917. Masteroppgåve Masteroppgåve i historie Én skute, men hvilken skipper? men hvilken Én skute, Trondheim, mai 2015 NTNU Det humanistiske fakultet Det humanistiske Institutt for historiske studier historiske for Institutt Noregs teknisk-naturvitskaplege universitet teknisk-naturvitskaplege Noregs Forord Denne oppgåva markerer slutten på den femårige lektorutdanninga. Arbeidet har vore hektisk og til tider slitsamt, men til sjuande og sist har det vore ein spennande, utfordrande og utruleg lærerik prosess. Å sitje med den ferdige oppgåva er både ei lette og ei tilfredsstilling. I og med at oppgåva er knytt til lektorprogrammet i historie er det viktig å kunne vise til ein viss relevans for lærarprofesjonen. Temaet for oppgåva er innanfor norsk politisk historie tidleg på 1900-talet, meir bestemt under den fyrste verdskrigen. Dette knyter oppgåva tett til kompetansemål både for fellesfaget historie i den vidaregåande skulen og for samfunnsfag i grunnskulen. I fyrste rekkje dreier dette seg om den norske samfunnsutviklinga i ein lengre definert periode, gjerne gjennom 1800-talet og fram til 1945, men også korleis krigen hadde ein innverknad også på dei nøytrale nordiske landa. I begge desse samanhengane vil denne oppgåva i høgste grad vere relevant. Val av tema for oppgåva kan seiast å vere eit resultat av nysgjerrigheit. Gunnar Knudsen var statsminister i ti av dei fyrste femten åra Noreg var ein sjølvstendig stat, likevel var inntrykket at han har ein noko tilbaketrekt posisjon i norsk historie.

The maritime industry plays an increas- ingly important role in the changing world economy, and this new series offers an outlet for reviewing trends and developments over time as well as analysing how such changes are affecting trade, transport, the environ- ment and financial markets. Each title in the series will communicate key research findings, shaping new approaches to maritime economics. The core audience will be academic, as well as policymakers, regulators and international maritime authorities and organisations. Individual titles will often be theoretically informed but will always be firmly evidence- based, seeking to link theory to policy outcomes and changing practices.

  • The Dissolution of the Union in 1905 a Comparison Between the Swedish and Norwegian Arguments
    The Dissolution of the Union in 1905 A Comparison between the Swedish and Norwegian Arguments Reprint from Evert Vedung, Unionsdebatten 1905. En iiimfiirelse mellan argumenteringen i Sverige och Norge, pp. 415-447. Summary This thesis contains (1) a discussion of theory and methods in the contem- porary analysis of political ideas, (2) a framework for the study of deci- sion-making in the field of foreign policy, and (3) an application of this framework to the discussions about the dissolution of the Unioo between Sweden and Norway in 190). The subject-matter has been treated in the form of a comparative study of Swedish and Norwegian discussions, as they can be followed in newspaper articles, pamphlets, aod records of parliamentary sessions and party meetings. I have also drawn upon a considerable amount of private material (diaries, letters, minutes and me- moranda). l. Tbeoretical point of departure My point of departure has been the theory of. tcientilic oalue relatiaitm. This value theory has been well established at Swedish universities since the appearance of the Uppsala School of Philosophy at the beginning of this century. As Arnold Brecht's great work on value relativism, Political Theory: The Foundatiou of Twentietb-Centary Political Thought shows, this theory of value has several implications. In my opinion, there are at least two reasons for the study of political ideas within this tradition. Ideas can be studied for the sake of their content, with the intention of construc- ting theories which are to govern the collection, classification and explana- tion of empirical data. But they can also be studied because they have played a considerable role in the political discussions in a certain country.
