Gradupaikka Parkinsonin taudin tutkimusprojektissa auki
by Laura Kytövuori 11 Aug '20

11 Aug '20

Hei kaikki! Meillä olisi Parkinsonin taudin tutkimusprojektissa gradupaikka auki. Graduprojektin aiheena on familiaalisen Parkinsonin taudin genetiikka suomalaisilla potilailla. Projektiin on saatu Parkinson-säätiöltä 4 kk:n apuraha ja gradutyöntekijä tulisi olemaan työsuhteessa sairaalaan. Etsimme joukkoomme innostunutta ja motivoitunutta biologia/biokemistiä. Eduksi katsotaan genetiikan opintojen suorittaminen. Graduohjaajana toimisi minun lisäkseni neurologian professori Kari Majamaa. Tiedotan tästä paikasta ensin täällä talon sisällä, jos jollakin sattuu olemaan jo innokas oppilas tiedossa. Ystävällisin terveisin, Laura K. Laura Kytövuori, FT Neurotieteen tutkimusyksikkö MRC Oulu Oulun yliopisto ja Oulun yliopistollinen sairaala p.0404145083 Aapistie 5A 90220 Oulun yliopisto

FW: Päivityksiä henkilöstön korona-ajan ohjeisiin / Corona instructions for university staff updated
by Antti Haapalainen 11 Aug '20

From: Oulun yliopisto <viestinta(a)oulu.fi> Sent: 10. elokuutata 2020 17:38 To: Antti Haapalainen <antti.haapalainen(a)oulu.fi> Subject: Päivityksiä henkilöstön korona-ajan ohjeisiin / Corona instructions for university staff updated Etätyösuositus jatkuu toistaiseksi - Remote work recommendation will continue for now Jos tämä sähköposti ei näy kunnolla, klikkaa tästä<https://uutiskirje-sisainen.oulu.fi/a/s/164823728-b7b93e168d9f560dc0d98b9b6…> [Oulun yliopisto] | 10.8.2020 | Etätyösuositus jatkuu Oulun yliopistossa - in English below Oulun yliopisto on päivittänyt korona-ajan ohjeita 10. elokuuta 2020. Etätyön tekeminen jatkuu kaikissa niissä tehtävissä, joissa se on mahdollista ja järkevää. Poikkeustilanteen aikana etätyön tekemisestä voi sopia joustavasti oman esimiehen kanssa, ja toistaiseksi työskentely yliopiston tiloissa ei edellytä erillistä lupamenettelyä. Laboratorioissa ja pajoissa on huolehdittava turvallisuudesta ja etäisyyksistä sekä henkilöiden määrästä. Opetus järjestetään pääsääntöisesti etänä ensimmäisellä opetusperiodilla 1.8.-25.10.2020. Uusien opiskelijoiden orientaatio järjestetään kuitenkin pienryhmissä kampuksilla. Seuraavasta periodista päätökset tehdään elokuun aikana. Mikäli kurssin järjestäminen etänä on mahdotonta, se voidaan järjestää kampuksella turvallisuudesta ja etäisyyksistä huolehtien. Kampuksella läsnäoloa vaativat tentit voidaan järjestää ja Exam-tenttitilaa voidaan käyttää turvallisuudesta ja etäisyyksistä huolehtien. Kokoukset järjestetään pääsääntöisesti verkkokokouksina hyödyntäen Teams- ja Zoom-ympäristöjä. Välttämättömiä tiedekuntien, yksiköiden ja toimintojen palavereita voidaan järjestää myös kampuksilla tilanteen vaatiessa. Työasioissa matkustaminen kotimaassa on mahdollista vain, mikäli se on välttämätöntä. Pääsääntöisesti ulkomaille ei matkusteta. Opiskelijavaihto on mahdollista ulkoministeriön asettamien matkustusrajoitusten salliessa. Yliopiston tiloissa noudatettava yleisiä turvallisuusohjeita Jokaisen yliopiston tiloissa työskentelevän henkilön on noudatettava yleisiä turvallisuusohjeita, tilakohtaisia riskiarviointien mukaisia ohjeita sekä muita työnantajan antamia määräyksiä. Työpaikalle ei saa tulla oireisena tai jos epäilee altistuneensa koronavirukselle. Henkilöiden välinen etäisyys on oltava kaikissa tilanteissa vähintään 1-2 metriä. Jokaisen on huolehdittava säännöllisestä ja huolellisesta käsihygieniasta. Kättelyistä on luovuttu - käytetään muita tervehtimistapoja. Jos epäilet tartuntaa, ole puhelimitse yhteydessä Oulun kaupungin ympärivuorokautisesti palvelevaan neuvontanumeroon tai omaan terveyskeskukseesi. Toimi terveydenhuollosta saamiesi ohjeiden mukaan. Hätätapauksissa soita hätänumeroon 112. Katso tarkemmat ohjeet ja yhteystiedot Oulun kaupungin koronasivulta<https://uutiskirje-sisainen.oulu.fi/go/28413158-3772296-164823728>. Riskiryhmään kuuluvat henkilöt tekevät pääsääntöisesti etätyötä. Mikäli etätyö ei ole mahdollista ja työterveyslääkäri on vahvistanut riskiryhmään kuulumisen, on työntekijän käytettävä työpaikalla joko kirurgista suu-nenäsuojainta tai hengityssuojainta (FFP-luokat) ja mahdollisia muita suojaimia. Työterveyslääkäri määrittelee tarvittavat suojaimet ja suojainluokat sekä ohjeistaa suojainten käytön. Kampusten ovet auki arkisin 8.00-15.45 Yliopiston kampusten ovet ovat avoinna 11.8.2020 alkaen virastoaikana klo 8.00-15.45. Muina aikoina kulku kampuksille tapahtuu kulkukortilla. Opiskelijat voivat hankkia tiloihin 24/7-kulkuoikeuden<https://uutiskirje-sisainen.oulu.fi/go/28413157-2895813-164823728>. Vieraita voidaan ottaa vastaan erityistä varovaisuutta noudattaen ja turvallisuudesta ja etäisyyksistä huolehtien. Oulun yliopistossa ei kuitenkaan ole tällä hetkellä mahdollista vierailla maista, joille ulkoministeriö on asettanut matkustusrajoituksia. Virastomestarit seuraavat tilannetta ja ohjeistavat kulkijoita tarvittaessa. Mikäli tilanne muuttuu, yliopisto tekee uuden riskiarvion. Lisätietoja: Työskentelyä koskevat tarkemmat koronaohjeet on koottu Pation koronasivulle<https://uutiskirje-sisainen.oulu.fi/go/28413151-1557818-164823728>, jonne niitä myös päivitetään jatkuvasti Koronavirustilanteeseen liittyvää tietoa on lisäksi julkisilla verkkosivuilla osoitteessa www.oulu.fi/yliopisto/koronavirus<https://uutiskirje-sisainen.oulu.fi/go/28413154-3282175-164823728>.

HR(a)oulu.fi<mailto:HR@oulu.fi> Remote work continues at the University of Oulu The University of Oulu has updated the Corona instructions on August 10, 2020. The remote work recommendation will continue for now in all those tasks where it is possible. During the exceptional situation, remote work can be flexibly agreed with superiors, and working at the university premises does not require a separate authorization procedure. In laboratories, it is important to pay attention to safety issues, distances, and number of persons. In autumn, the first study period between August 1 and October 25, 2020 is organised mainly remotely. The orientation for new students will happen in small groups on campuses. Decisions about the second period will be made in August. When necessary, teaching can be arranged on campuses by taking into account the safety and distance instructions. Exams can be organised on campuses and in E-exam rooms when safety instructions are taken into consideration. Meetings will be organised mostly in Zoom and Teams environments, but when necessary, it is possible to have meetings also on campuses. Work-related travel within Finland will only be possible if it is unavoidable. As a rule, travel abroad is not possible. In student-exchange issues university follows the travel instructions of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs. Follow the safety instructions when visiting campuses Every person working in the university facilities must follow public safety guidelines, spatial risk assessments guidelines and other regulations issued by the employer. Do not enter the workplace if you have suitable symptoms or if you suspect infection. In all situations, the distance between persons must be at least 1-2 meters. Everyone should take care of regular and careful hand hygiene. Handshakes can be replaced by other ways of greeting. If you suspect a coronavirus infection, contact the counseling number in the city of Oulu or your own medical centre. Act according to the instructions you get from health care. For emergencies, call 112. For more detailed instructions and contact information, see the City of Oulu's corona page<https://uutiskirje-sisainen.oulu.fi/go/28413155-3938041-164823728>. As a rule, people in the risk group work remotely. If remote work is not possible and the occupational health practitioner has confirmed an at-risk status, the employee must use either a surgical mask or FFP mask and possible other protective equipment at the workplace. The occupational health doctor will prescribe the necessary protective equipment and will give instructions. The doors are open on weekdays 8.00-15.45 >From August 11 onwards the doors of the campuses are open at 8.00-15.45. At other times, staff members and students can access campuses with their access cards. Responsible and careful following of hygiene instructions is required of every visitor. Safety distance of 1-2 metres must be kept. You must not enter the campus if you have any symptoms of coronavirus infection. Guests can be welcomed with special care and taking care of safety and distances. However, it is not currently possible to visit the University of Oulu from countries that are on the Ministry for Foreign Affairs travel restriction list. Campus services monitor the situation and instruct visitors on campuses if necessary. If the situation changes, the university will make a new risk assessment.

Steriilivesi soluviljelyyn / Sterile water for cell culture
by Antti Haapalainen 04 Aug '20

04 Aug '20

Hei, Tiedoksi. Tilasin steriiliä vettä soluviljelyyn, Aqua B.Braun merkkistä ei enää toimiteta, jatkossa steriilivesi on Fresenius Kabi merkkinen. Meidän käytössä tällä ei ole merkitystä. Hi, Just to let you know. I ordered sterile water for cell culture, the Aqua B.Brau brand is no longer available, from now on the sterile water will be Fresenius Kabi branded. In our use, this does not matter. Terv. Antti

Basically it says that the product used in floor coating is not reported to produce evaporating compounds observed. They explain that the compounds detected on Tuesday could be due to cross-reaction of used materials with plywood containing adhesives. They also assure that working area is cover and under pressured.

Kyseessä oli siis lattianpäällystyksestä aiheutunut tilanne. Dear recipients, Please find below the e-mail reporting and describing the situation caused by the covering work of the restaurant floor. T. Essi ________________________________ Kohteesta: Pihlajaniemi Henri-Pekka <henri.pihlajaniemi(a)consti.fi<mailto:henri.pihlajaniemi@consti.fi>> Lähetetty: perjantaina 31. heinäkuuta 2020 klo 15.26 Vastaanottaja: Timo Haverinen; Lähteenmäki, Kai Aihe: Re: Hazardous chemical leak at Biocenter Oulu/Oulu university Hei, Asiaa on käsitelty viikolla ja työt keskeytettiin ja siirrettiin tehtäväksi nyt perjantaina kello 16.00 alkaen. Kyseessä siis oli ravintola medisiinan lattianpäällystys (20m2) akryylibetonilla. Käytetty akryylibetoni on M1-luokkaa. Tila on suojattu ja alipaineistettu. Pinnoituksesta on tiedoitettu koko Aapistie 5A:n alueelle. Työ oli pääurakoitsija Constin tilaama ja toteuttajana akryylibetonilattioihin erikoistunut Suomen Mardega. Olen toimittanut käyttöturvallisuus tiedotteet WSP:lle ja ne ovat aina myös työntekijöiden saatavilla. Olemme lähestyneet materiaalin toimittajaa asian suhteen. Tuotteessa ei ole ilmoitettu syntyvän havaittuja yhdisteitä. Mikäli mittaukset ovat paikkansa pitävät, havaitut yhdisteet tuona kellonaikana viittaavat kuitenkin siihen että se olisi johtuva pinnoituksesta. Ainoa mikä voisi selittää asiaa on, että pinnoite on reagoinut ollessaan kosketuksissa vaneriin jossa on liima-aineita.
