Associate Professor
Maria Omsland
Field of work
I am a Biomedical Laboratory Scientist with a Masters Degree and PhD in Medical Cell Biology. As an Associate Professor at Western Norway University of Applied Sciences, I teach: Cell Biology (BIO-174), Hematology and Immunology (BIO-201) and administrator of the Bachelor thesis subject (BIO-350) and a supervisor of Bachelor students and PhD candidates. The goal of my teaching is to make the students see the relevance of theory for practising as a Biomedical Laboratory Scientist.
