Odd Helge Romarheim

PhD
Feed Technology Manager, Scientist

My main task is to lead Nofimas Feed Technologi Centre located in Bergen. I have my education from the Norwegian university of life sciences (UMB) in Ås where I studied animal nutrition, with special emphasis on aquaculture. I received my PhD in fish nutrition in 2007 at the Aquaculture Protein Centre, a centre of excellence created by Nofima, the Norwegian School of Veterinary Science, and UMB. My main field of research was the effect of novel protein sources for farmed fish (plant, bacterial
