Koulutus sopimuksista / Training on agreements 8.10.-10.12.
by Maarit Jokela 18 Sep '25

18 Sep '25

Hi (in English below), Tänä päivänä tutkimusta tehdään usein yhteistyössä niin akateemisten kuin yritysten kanssa käyttäen monenlaisia rahoituslähteitä. Niinpä usein ollaan tilanteessa, että asioista pitää sopia osapuolten kesken eli tehdä kirjallinen sopimus. Tule koulutukseen, jossa voit oppia sopimusasioista lisää. Koulutuksen tavoitteena on oppia, miksi sopimuksia tarvitaan, millaisia sopimuksia käytetään, mitä velvoitteita sopimukset asettavat tutkijan työlle ja mitkä ovat sopimusten keskeiset elementit. Koulutuksessa ei käydä läpi sopimuspykäliä, vaan tuodaan esille olennaisimmat asiat, jotka tutkijan on hyvä tietää sopimuksista. Koulutuksen jälkeen tiedät, mitä kirjainlyhenteet NDA, MTA, DTA, PLA, GA, CA yms. tarkoittavat. Koulutus soveltuu niin väitöskirjatyötekijöille, projektipäälliköille, postdoceille kuin tutkimusryhmän vetäjille. Väitöskirjatyöntekijät voivat saada kurssista 0.5 op. Jos et tarvitse opintopisteitä, valitse itseäsi kiinnostavimmat luentokerrat. Koulutus järjestetään englanniksi. Lisätietoa: https://patio.oulu.fi/fi/uutiset/ota-sopimusasiat-haltuun-tutkija-tule-koul… **** Nowadays, research is often conducted in collaboration with both academic institutions and companies, using various funding sources. As a result, it's often necessary to formalize agreements between the parties involved by creating a written contract. Come to the training and learn more about contract matters. The course aims to teach why contracts are necessary, what types of contracts are used, what obligations contracts impose on a researcher's work, and what the key elements of contracts are. The course will not go through contract clauses in detail but will highlight the essential points that a researcher should know about contracts. After the course, you will understand what the abbreviations NDA, MTA, DTA, PLA, GA, CA, etc., mean. The course is suitable for PhD students, project managers, post-docs and research group leaders. PhD students can earn 0.5 ECTS credits from the course. If you do not need credits, you can choose the lectures that interest you most. The course will be conducted in English.

Reminder; Thursday seminar in biology today: Dr. Patrick Nichols on Molecules to management: navigating uncertainty in environmental DNA biomonitoring of coral reefs
by Heikki Helanterä 18 Sep '25

18 Sep '25

A reminder: Biology Thursday seminar will continue 18th Sep, 12:15 on site in room AT117, with Dr. Patrick Nichols, who just started as a post doc at the Ecology and genetics unit here in Oulu, on "Molecules to management: navigating uncertainty in environmental DNA biomonitoring of coral reefs" Abstract: Environmental DNA (eDNA) is transforming how we monitor biodiversity, offering a rapid, non-invasive way to detect species from genetic traces in water, soil, or air. As its use expands across ecosystems and management contexts, there's growing urgency to understand how reliable these tools are, and how to communicate their limitations. This talk explores how uncertainty arises in eDNA data, from natural ecological variability to technical and methodological choices, and what that means for its application in real-world conservation. Using coral reefs, I evaluate how eDNA captures biodiversity patterns over time, how sampling methods influence detection of elusive species, and how sensitive eDNA is to early signs of invasive organisms. To bridge the gap between detection and decision-making, I apply statistical models that estimate error rates and help translate molecular signals into actionable insights. Ultimately, this work underscores the importance of pairing innovation with transparency, helping managers use eDNA effectively while navigating its uncertainties.
