Cryohanska / Cryo glove
by Antti Haapalainen 15 Aug '22

15 Aug '22

Hei, Minulle ilmoitettiin, että muutama henkilö on saanut pienehkön haavan peukaloon, kun on käyttänyt M-koon sinistä cryohanskaa (vasemmankäden hanska). Ilmeisesti hanskan sisäpuolella on jokin terävähkö kohta, joka tulee esille kun sormia liikuttelee. Tunnustelemalla sisältä ja päältä, mitään terävää ei kuitenkaan löydy. Ilmoitelkaa, jos tämä toistuu. Ja siinä tapauksessa yrittäkää paikantaa kohta. Hi, I have been informed that a few people have had a small cut on their thumb while using the size M blue cryo glove (left hand glove). Apparently, there is a sharp point on the inside of the glove that comes out when you move your fingers. By checking the inside and outside, however, nothing sharp can be found. Please let me know if this happens again. And in that case, try to locate the point. Terv. Antti

From: owner-finbionet-members(a)helsinki.fi <owner-finbionet-members(a)helsinki.fi> On Behalf Of Tienhaara, Anita M H Sent: maanantai 15. elokuuta 2022 8.40 To: finbionet-members(a)helsinki.fi Subject: Open positions for one Doctoral Researcher and one Postdoctoral Researcher for Safe Biomonitoring by Bioict Integrated Wearables at University of Oulu Importance: High We at the University of Oulu work as part of the international science community to produce new scientific information and science-based solutions. We are committed to educating future pioneers to build a more sustainable, intelligent, and humane world. Creating new, taking responsibility, and succeeding together are values that build a solid foundation for all our actions. We offer a working environment where individuals can cultivate their skills, do meaningful work, and develop professionally. Our university's several specialized research and service units enable extensive and diverse development and career opportunities for experts in various fields. Oulu provides endless opportunities for modern BIO and ICT research (https://youtu.be/WStoojF1VHA). We are now seeking for One Doctoral Researcher and one Postdoctoral Researcher to join our multidisciplinary research team to work for a new Infotech Oulu project “SAFE BIOMONITORING BY BIOICT INTEGRATED WEARABLES” https://rekry.saima.fi/certiahome/open_job_view.html?did=5600&lang=en&id=00… The successful candidates will join a multidisciplinary research group led by Prof. Juha Röning from the Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering at the University of Oulu and the Biomimetics and Intelligent Systems Group (BISG, https://www.oulu.fi/en/biomimetics-and-intelligent-systems-group). The Co-PIs in this Infotech research project are Professors Seppo Vainio, Valerio Izzi, Sylvain Sebert, and Ville Pimenoff, who represent of the Faculty of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine and Faculty of Medicine at the University of Oulu, Finland. The researchers chosen through this recruitment process will work as a team with guidance from the abovementioned research leaders.The work will be data driven, in the biomedical field (Doctoral researcher) and biocomputing (Postdoctoral researcher) based on large source of biomolecular data (e.g. GTEX), genomics (FINNGEN) and longitudinal cohorts (LongITools.org). Doctoral researcher and postdoctoral researcher will also have some teaching opportunities. The team is part of the two flagships (https://www.genecellnano.fi/ and https://www.oulu.fi/6gflagship/). Open position for a doctoral researcher Molecular machinery of extracellular vesicle secretion. Contact, Associate professor Valerio Izzi (Valerio.izzi(a)oulu.fi<mailto:Valerio.izzi@oulu.fi>) and Dr. Ville Pimenoff (ville.pimenoff(a)ki.se<mailto:ville.pimenoff@ki.se>). The production and release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) by multiple cell types is an established concept in health and disease. However, a systematic catalog of different EVs markers and cargos, as well as the molecular drivers of their production and release as well as the machinery required to produce them is missing. To explore this EVs atlas for disease associations, the successful candidate will make use of large multi-omics cohorts and integrative bioinformatics and data analysis approaches to identify EVs signatures across healthy and pathological (e.g., cancer) samples and to impute both the molecular signals governing them and the most likely targets and effects dependent on them. Job requirements: We are welcoming a candidate with a strong background in genetic epidemiology, biostatistics, and bioinformatics. We seek candidates with scientific curiosity and skills in research using large data, longitudinal studies and causal approaches in epidemiology and machine learning. The successful candidate will join a pluri-disciplinary team and is therefore requested excellent communication skills in English (oral and written).

Open online lecture, QUPATH: OPEN-SOURCE SOFTWARE FOR BIOIMAGE ANALYSIS AND DIGITAL PATHOLOGY, August 25th at 1 PM
by Sanna Palosaari 11 Aug '22

11 Aug '22

August 25th 13:00 Finnish time Open online lecture: https://oulu.zoom.us/j/64556587648 QuPath: Open-source software for bioimage analysis and digital pathology Reader, Peter Bankhead Institute of Genetics and Cancer University of Edinburgh [cid:image001.jpg@01D8AD68.22C06DB0] Dr Peter Bankhead - Reader Realising the potential of image analysis and AI for biology and pathology is hard, and requires software. Firstly, we need open and adaptable software tools that help specialists in different areas work together to devise meaningful algorithms. We then need user-friendly and accessible software platforms to make these algorithms widely available, so that others can validate and apply them in practice. QuPath (http://qupath.github.io) is free and open-source software designed to help address these needs. Since its release in 2016, QuPath has been downloaded more than 240,000 times and applied in well over 1,000 published studies by groups throughout the world. A growing community of users and developers are now using the platform to create innovative ways of exploring complex biomedical images, with over 2,300 QuPath-related discussions on the Scientific Community Image Forum at https://image.sc. This talk will describe QuPath’s background and current status, what the future holds, and how the software can be useful for a wide range of different groups working with whole slide and microscopy images today. Bio Pete completed his PhD at Queen’s University Belfast, focussing on the analysis of retinal images and calcium signals in retinal arterioles. He then moved to Germany, becoming a postdoc in the Nikon Imaging Center at Heidelberg University where he spent much of his time helping microscope users interpret their imaging data using open-source software. During this time he wrote a bioimage analysis handbook for biologists. This has recently been rewritten and released as a new open, interactive, executable book at https://bioimagebook.github.io. Upon returning to Belfast as a postdoc at the end of 2012, Pete encountered digital pathology for the first time. After trying to apply existing open software tools to whole slide images with limited success, he wrote his own: QuPath. After a short time in industry, Peter is now Reader (Associate Professor) at the University of Edinburgh, where he is building a group dedicated to developing open AI and bioimage analysis methods for pathology and other imaging data. Welcome to join and please feel free to share with colleagues.
