Dr. Alexander Johan Nederbragt ("Lex Nederbragt") is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Oslo's Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, affiliated with the Centre for Ecological and Evolutionary Synthesis (CEES) and former member of the Centre for Computational Inference in Evolutionary Life Science (CELS). He leads the "Computing in Science Education" initiative within the Bioscience bachelor's program, developing courses like BIOS1100 that integrate Python programming with biological modeling. His educational philosophy emphasizes reverse instructional design and constructive alignment, with a focus on student-active learning and AI-driven pedagogical innovation. Researchwise, Nederbragt specializes in Bioinformatics and Genomics , particularly Evolutionary genomics of fish (Atlantic cod, haddock, grayling) Graph-based reference genome methodologies Genomic repeat element analysis Horizontal gene transfer in diatoms Computational microbiome studies His work spans comparative genomics, genome assembly validation, and bioinformatics software development (NucDiff, NucBreak). Scientific contributions reveal expertise in High-throughput sequencing Genomic architecture Evolutionary adaptation Computational methods Publication trends from 2012-2023 His research frequently intersects with ecological and evolutionary questions, particularly in teleost fishes.
