Forskning
Professor II Albert Kjartan Dagbjartarson Imsland (Januar 2025, ISI statistic 233, H-indeks 45) har lang forskningserfaring innen vekst og utvikling hos fisk, reproduksjon og tilpasning til miljøet, med fokus på marine arter. Sentral i Imslands forskning er miljømessig og arvelig styring av vekst og kjønnsmodning og hvordan disse prosessene påvirkes av indre og ytre faktorer. Imsland innehar også stilling som forskningsdirektør i akvakultur hos Akvaplan-niva i Tromsø. Via den stillingen, og sin bistilling ved UiB, bidrar Imsland til å gjøre forskningsfunn og kunnskap tilgjengelig for havbruksnæringen.
