This semester the bachelor students Mari, Raghild, Nanna and Renate are joining in the bioCEED team. The student representatives are an important part of bioCEED and come from both BIO at University of Bergen and from AB at UNIS. Their main responsibility is to be a link between bioCEED and the students, to contribute to bioCEED activities and prosjects. They also represent the students on the bioCEED board and bioCEED steering commitee. Welcome!
