News from the management

new vice-head of department for research

Dear all,

Our current vice head of department for research, Torsten Nygaard Kristensen, has decided to reprioritize some of his efforts. We have therefore agreed that Torsten will be relieved from his responsibilities as vice head of department for research, within a reasonable time frame.

I am very happy to be able to announce that Cejna Anna Quist-Jensen has agreed to take over the role as vice head of department for research! Cejna will become co-ordinator of the Department's research strategic initiatives that extend across research areas, and participate in the faculty's Research and Innovation Committee (FIU) with a view to identifying and stimulating possible collaborative relationships between the Departments. Cejna will also be part of the Department's day-to-day management together with Niels (Vice-Head of Education and Studies) and Marianne (Head of Secretariat).

I am extremely pleased that Cejna has taken on this important task and look forward to working closely with greater emphasis on realizing the Department's research potential. The transition to the new role will be effective as of October 1st, when Cejna is expected to return from her current maternity leave. We have agreed that Cejna can participate in relevant meetings and activities, as she sees fit, from today and onwards.

/ Michael

Who's Who: Colleague spotligHt 

  • Name: Lars Haastrup Pedersen
  • Profession: Associate Professor and Chairman of the study board

We have asked Lars a few questions, to get to know him better: 

When were you employed at the department and what is your background? What different roles have you had during your time at the department?

I joined AAU to start the education in biotechnology. I was affiliated to The Department of Civil Engineering (in Danish: Institut for vand, jord og miljøteknik) where I set up the laboratory for biotechnology. We admitted the first four students to the master's program and since then the number of educations has grown to include a total of 800 students. Fortunately, I have had assistance along the way. The facilities have also become slightly different, especially when we moved from the barracks on Sohngaardsholmsvej. The barracks were functional and located adjacent to a former kindergarten that the university had rented for our offices. Some would claim that we did our best to preserve the atmosphere from the former function of this rental. A problem with the barracks was that the indoor temperature control was linked to the ventilation and this meant that ambient temperature could easily fluctuate 10 oC between the seasons. One winter, an overnight power failure caused formation of ice crystals in the injector of my GC. Here you really learned to understand the importance of thermostating your experiments. Moving to Fredrik Bajers Vej was not completely without problems, and on the personal level it caused a decrease in my basic physical shape because the bike ride distance to work was halved. So I had to do a bit of extra exercise (see photo above).

Why did you choose to go in the educational direction you did, and subsequently in terms of work?

From my time at the Carlsberg Research Center, my interests in carbohydrates, bioprocesses and beer brewing arose and they have followed me ever since, which also has had an impact on our Department. When I finished my PhD, the monthly salary promptly increased to approx. 13,000 DKK and therefore I kept my old job from my student days as a church singer. Although I occasionally struggled to meet energetic and rested on Sunday morning, I maintained my passion for classical choral singing and continued in the Budolfi Cathedral Choir here in Aalborg.

What would surprise your collegaues about you?

One of my four grandchildren is the first native citizen of Aalborg in the family. Although I grew up in a neighborhood where we were notorious for more hard-hitting arguments (as described by the Danish author Dan Turèll in ‘Vangede Billeder’), I am fairly well versed in the dialect, Vendelbomål after countless games of penny (enøres) whist with my grandparents, who had relatives among coastal fishermen living in Lønstrup.

I have always been concerned that our programs are attractive with content providing the candidates the best skills and opportunities to contribute to business and global development. This is one of the reasons why I have taken on the job as study board chairman. Our Department and the curricula have gone through a rapid development, which is really exciting and constantly striving for improvements. Although university rules and legislation have become tighter and more detailed since I started, fortunately the effort still requires pioneering spirit and ingenuity with room for own initiatives, just like when we started 30 years ago. I do not think I will ever get bored here.

January's How To

The annual performance and development reviews (MUS) are coming up, and therefore we would like to highlight the strategy for competence development, which is relevant to use at e.g performance and development reviews. As a starting point, competence development wishes are agreed upon at the annual performance and development reviews. VIP and TAP TEK send competence development requests to the head of section and Marianne Dalsgaard Brønnum, after which Marianne takes the requests to the management for discussion. TAP ADM sends competence development requests to Marianne Dalsgaard Brønnum, after which Marianne brings the requests to the management for discussion. This year, the competency focus areas are:

  • VIP and TAP TEK: Individual and intensive Danish course and communication as well as project management for researchers
  • TAP ADM: Competence development in relation to one's professional area and position. Additional language qualification English

New colleague in the economy team


As per 1 January 2023 we have welcomed Knud Rasmussen to the economy team in the administration. Knud has a master's degree in accounting and finance from Odense University and has extensive experience in the financial field (budgets, accounts, budget follow-up, analysis work and consultancy) from both agricultural associations and Forsvaret. Knud is 58 years old and lives in Serritslev with his wife Kirsten. They have three children – two adult children who have moved away from home and a son at boarding school. Knud is super active and plays a lot of golf at the same time as he likes to run and cycle. In addition, he is into both yoga and crossfit.

New department brochure

Looking for a descriptive and appealing introduction to Department of Chemistry & Bioscience? Our new brochure has been printed and published online. Have a look! You can get your own copies from Niels (nks@bio.aau.dk), to be handed out to research or business partners and to recruit students.

Power outages at bio

In the case of unannounced interruptions, it is necessary to be informed - for example in the case of power cuts, which can be crutial to all lab equipment. It is encouraged that the person, who hears about / or experiences the interruption forward the relevant information per e-mail to contact@bio.aau.dk.

specification: Cars and Bikes for Broader Use

A short correction after the text in decembers newsletter about cars and bikes for broader use. Some people thought they could now borrow all cars without being employed. Everyone who drives department vehicles must (as before) be employed in one form or another. However, we currently have a leased car from AVIS, which students, who are not employed, can use (employees can of course also use it). The only requirement (from AVIS) is that everyone who will be driving in the car fills in a form about reckless driving which must be submitted before starting the trip.

News from research

AAU Mission Driven Research – An Update

As you know our university’s strategy is to be mission-oriented, guided by a meaningful purpose that goes beyond our own organisation and contributes to the sustainable development of the world. Now the first two missions of Aalborg University have been chosen – to be established in 2023:

  • A Sustainable Energy System in Denmark by 2045.
  • Inclusiveness and Wellbeing of Children and Young People.

The management of the university chose these two from a large pool of missions. Department of Chemistry & Bioscience originally suggested four missions that was selected to the total pool from Faculty of Engineering (consisting of 13 missions):

  • Harnessing the Power of Microbes
  • A Sustainable Circular Plastic Sector
  • Realizing a Pesticide Free Future
  • Elimination of Polyfluorinated Compounds

Even though neither of the above four research missions where selected as AAU’s 2023 missions, our department and faculty will work to help the researchers develop the great ideas through other means (platforms, bubble projects, pitching for funding partners etc.). For questions ask Torsten (tnk@bio.aau.dk).

Novo Nordisk Foundation’s Start Package Grant funding programme

The department is happy to announce yet another exciting funding result, earned from our efforts to attract funding for new members of faculty through the Novo Nordisk Foundation’s Start Package Grant funding programme. With quarterly deadlines it is possible to obtain funding for establishing new research groups with candidates, who are in the recruitment process or have been newly recruited. Head of Department has as main applicant, with newly employed Associate Professor Stefan Junne and tenure track Assistant Professor Xinxin Xiao, successfully been granted two separate grants from this programme.

The PhD and Postdoc Committee in a Decorative Mood

This December the halls and aisles in Aalborg and Esbjerg was decked and decorated in part because of a competition arranged by the PhD and Postdoc Committee – in the dark month of December the door decorations really lit up everyone’s day.

The winners of the decoration competition where: Asmus Toftkær Muurmann, Neha Kiran Durugkar, Stine Frey Laursen, Hanne Lyngholm Larsen, Ninna Merethe Pedersen and Nicolai Præst Nielsen!

Need more computing muscles?

Apply for HPC computing power for your research (High Performance Computing). Right now and until 5 March, there is a new call for applications for computing time. As a researcher at a Danish university, you have various options for gaining access to computing power at both Danish and international supercomputer facilities. Recent examples of this are large grants to Morten Smedskjær and Mads Albertsen. Here at AAU CLAAUDIA is happy to help with guidance in the application process. Read more from Danish e-infrastructure Cooperation: Apply for HPC resources.

Looking for future Marie Curie Fellows

April 21 there is a registration deadline for the next Marie Curie Fellowships: The aim of the program is both to attract more talented international young researchers to AAU and to develop the international profile of AAU employed researchers. To boost the number of grants awarded by Marie Sklodowska-Curie actions under the Horizon Europe Programme, F&P will arrange an on-line Marie Curie Talent Course in week 22 (dates and time to be confirmed). The course is intended for the following Marie Sklodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships (MSCA-PF) with AAU as host institution:

  • European Fellowships - to attract more talented international young researchers to AAU.
  • Global Fellowships - to develop the international profile of AAU employed researchers by giving them the opportunity to conduct a research project partly in a research institution located in a Third Country (non- EU country) and partly at AAU.

To hear more, contact Isabelle (ifi@adm.aau.dk) or Torsten (tnk@bio.aau.dk).

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for AAU supervisors from a strong research environment, having supervisor experiences and who are recognized in their field and high quality candidates pointed out by the supervisors.

What do you need to do if you as a potential supervisor is interested?

For postdoctoral candidates to attend the AAU 2023 Marie Curie Talent Course, AAU supervisors should contact potential candidates and

Ask the candidates to register online to express their interest in participating in the course

News from studies

New specialization in Environmental processes

From September 2023, our master’s program in Environmental Science will no longer take up student. Instead it will  be replaced by a new specialization in Environmental processes, and be part of the master’s program in Water and Environmental Engineering at BUILD.

Our department will be responsible for the 3rd and 4th semesters on the specialization. This  builds up to a long 45-50 ECTS experimental master’s project where students will take 2-3 5 ECTS courses as part of their master thesis. During the first two semesters students will follow the existing master’s program in Water and Environmental Engineering and this will be identical for all students on that program.

The purpose of the specialization is to ensure that BIO remains involved in the Environmental science/Environment processes programs at both BSc and MSc level, thus providing our Environmental science BSc students with the opportunity to further develop their skills at master's level in areas rooted in chemistry, biology, or biotechnology, and to ensure the involvement and commitment from our department on the long term.

The specialization is broad within the areas if environmental processes, and projects as well as courses may come from both our departmental sections. Relevant research areas at BIO must offer good projects starting Fall 2024, where the new 3rd and 4th semesters will be run for the first time.

Invitation to graduation ceremony

The Faculty of Engineering and Science and The Faculty of IT and Design invites to a graduation ceremony where this winter’s graduates will be celebrated.

When: Friday February 10 2023 14:00-16:00
