The printer in the PC-room in the basement of Frederik Holsts house (FHH) is now removed and the institute is using Pullprint instead.
To print something please choose Ricoh pullprint on the PC (this is now the standard solution on all PC's at the PC-room). Then go to a Ricoh pullprint printer and swipe your student card and press the Pull Print button on the display.
The pullprint machines are located in entrance floor with the second stair case, and in the 2nd floor close to the third stair case, and in the 3rd floor.
To buy more printouts please do so from https://utskrift.uio.no as before.

Open guest lecture by Ezekiel J. Emanuel. The event starts with a reception at 2:45 PM. There will be light refreshments and a chance to network and mingle. The guest lecture starts at 3:30 PM. Registration before August 18.
Does everyone deserve the world's highest quality health tests and treatments? Is it ever ethical to provide people with less effective or more toxic care?

The Faculty of Medicine at the University of Oslo has made a short
film about epigenetics, and about how two identical twins can end up with two different personalities.
Is it the environment or genes? Or both?
The Faculty of Medicine wishes to encourage good dissemination of
research that is easy and understandable in teaching.
A project group from the Faculty of Medicine is therefore presenting a new way of merging research and teaching.
We hope you will like it and share it: https://youtu.be/k50yMwEOWGU
