09 Oct '25

Hei, Eilen LTK Esihenkilöfoorumissa dekaani Jukka Hakkola mainitsi ja muistutti työsuunnitelmien teosta. "Jokainen kokonaistyöajan piiriin kuuluva henkilö laatii vuosittain yhdessä esihenkilönsä kanssa työsuunnitelman 30.6. mennessä. Kokonaistyöaikaan kuuluvat kaikki opetus- ja tutkimushenkilöstöön kuuluvat henkilöt, pois lukien tutkimus- ja opetusavustajat." Lisäinfoa löytyy: https://patio.oulu.fi/fi/uutiset/tyosuunnitelmat-laaditaan-sap-catsssa Hi, Yesterday, at the Faculty of Medicine "Line Manager Forum", Dean Jukka Hakkola mentioned and reminded about the work plans. "As a part of the development discussion and curriculum planning processes, each employee in the total working time system prepares a work plan with the line manager by June 30 each year, detailing the work tasks for the academic year. All teaching and research staff belong to the total working time system, except research/teaching assistants."

Webinar on the replacement of animal research, 14.10.2025
by Sakari Laaksonen 07 Oct '25

07 Oct '25

The next Finnish 3R Centre<https://fin3r.fi/en> webinar: Registration is open for the free webinar "Supporting Replacement in Academia" which will be presented by Barney Reed, RSPCA, UK Date: Tuesday, 14 October 2025, at 14:00 (EEST, in Helsinki) ABSTRACT In the UK, and in many other countries, more than half of all animal use for scientific purposes takes place within universities and medical schools, primarily in fundamental and applied research. There are particular barriers to changing current research practices in these settings. These include social and cultural issues relating to 'the way science is done', and established systems of funding, publishing and career progression which can incentivise or 'lock-in' certain behaviours. This presentation will discuss an ongoing RSPCA project exploring how these factors may impact upon the ability of scientists across the range of career levels to train in and adopt non-animal methods. Drawing on findings from in-depth semi-structured interviews with researchers using animals across UK universities, this presentation will highlight drivers of animal use and barriers and opportunities around the uptake and acceptance of non-animal methods in academic research. Individuals shared their insights, perspectives and concerns as they spoke candidly about the issues they faced (including knowledge, skills, and expertise; communities and networks; academic environment and pressures; access; and awareness and engagement) and the support they felt they, and those like them, would need. In examining these factors, the project aims to offer tailored recommendations to funders, regulators, professional and learned societies, journal publishers, Animal Welfare Bodies, individual institutions and others, for further stimulating and supporting the replacement of animal use in academia. Reference: McGlacken, R. & Reed, B. T. (2024). Supporting Replacement in Academia: Exploring barriers around the acceptance and uptake of non-animal methods in science in UK academia. RSPCA, Horsham, UK. Full report available at: https://tinyurl.com/SupportingReplacement2024 SPEAKER Barney is Senior Science and Policy Manager in the Animals in Science Department of the RSPCA. He works with individuals and organisations involved in the regulation, use and care of lab animals in the UK, EU and across the world to promote the fullest implementation of the 3Rs, and support the development and uptake of non-animal methodologies, good cultures of care within institutions, and effective systems of ethical review. He has served on the institutional Animal Welfare and Ethical Review Bodies (the UK equivalent of AWBs/AECs/IACUCs) of eight establishments across academia and industry, and been a member of numerous European Commission Expert Working Groups producing guidance on implementing Directive 2010/63/EU. Between 2016 and 2023, he was appointed to the UK national Animals in Science Committee. In October 2023 he was elected to the Governing Board of the International Council for Laboratory Animal Science (ICLAS). See more on LinkedIn at: www.linkedin.com/in/barneyreed<http://www.linkedin.com/in/barneyreed> Registration for this webinar is required (**This webinar will be locked when the meeting room limit (300) is reached**): https://helsinki.zoom.us/meeting/register/bc5P4U8PQ2So4SuHSd-A1Q After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.

Mutta kuka tekijänoikeudet omistaa, jos teos on tehty tekoälyä hyödyntäen? Voinko käyttää tekoälysovelluksia hyödyksi tieteellisissä artikkeleissa, jos kustantaja vaatii selvitystä tekijänoikeuksien omistajasta? Voiko tekoälyohjelmaan syöttää tekijänoikeudella suojattua artikkeleita ja kuvia? * Suomeksi<https://patio.oulu.fi/fi/tapahtumat/innowebinaari-1311-tekoaly-ja-tekijanoi…> 13.11.2025 klo 10-11 * Englanniksi <https://patio.oulu.fi/en/events/innowebinar-1711-english-artificial-intelli…> 17.11.2025 klo 10-11 Pitempi kurssi (ilmoittaudu Pepissä, Oskussa tai sähköpostilla): Get to know copyrights<https://patio.oulu.fi/sites/default/files/2025-09/Get%20to%20know%20copyrig…> 5.11.2025 (yht. 5 h, 0.5 op, englanniksi, online) * Opettaja, tutkija, opiskelija: syvennä tietämystäsi tekijänoikeuksista - mitkä ovat oikeutesi ja milloin tarvitset luvan tekijänoikeuksien haltijalta? * Huom!
