Författare: Jacob Joseph Lamb

Jacob Lamb is originally from New Zealand where he got both his B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Biochemistry at the University of Otago, where he worked in a research laboratory at the University of Otago in Dunedin, New Zealand with Professor Julian Eaton-Rye. He came to Norway to undertake a PhD in Biotechnology under the supervision of Associate Professor Martin Hohmann-Marriott, which he completed in June 2016. Jacob then undertook a post-doctoral position under the supervision of Professor Dag Roar Hjelme and Associate Professor Kristian Myklebust Lien looking at photonic sensor technologies for their application in biogas production. Since 2018, Jacob has been a researcher studying sensor technologies and process digitalisation for a variety of applications in biological and engineering fields related to energy. He has also worked on implementing a knowledge base of Li-ion battery manufacturing at NTNU with Professor Odne Stokke Burheim. His areas of expertise include sensor technologies, optical spectroscopy, photosynthesis, microbiology, biological and biochemical techniques, electronics and programming, digitalisation, renewable energy, energy storage and process engineering. His research motivation is to improve renewable energy sources, increase sustainability within agricultural and aquacultural industries, develop technologies for climate change mitigation as well as develop ways to measure, analyse, and optimize processes. Within ENERSENSE, Jacob is working with Sensor Instrumentation, Energy Storage and Energy Efficiency, with his main focus on designing and implementing sensor technologies for monitoring.
