Terttu-säätiön hankeapurahat 2025 Pohjois-Suomen terveydenhuollon tukisäätiö julistaa haettavaksi vuoden 2025 hankeapurahat tieteelliseen tutkimukseen. Säätiö tukee erityisesti Pohjois-Suomen alueella tehtävää kliinistä tutkimusta painottaen kuluvana vuonna uusia, lupaavia tutkimusryhmiä. Apurahoja myönnetään yhteensä 120 000 euroa. Hakemus saa olla enintään neljän sivun mittainen. Hakemukset ovat vapaamuotoisia, mutta hakemuksen tulee sisältää tiivistelmä tutkimussuunnitelmasta, kuvaus tutkimusryhmästä ja mahdollisista väitöskirjahankkeista sekä esitys anotun rahoituksen käyttötarkoituksesta. Kaikki hakemukset vertaisarvioidaan. Tässä haussa ei voi hakea rahoitusta yksittäiseen väitöskirjahankkeeseen. Hakijalla tulee olla työsuhde Pohjois-Pohjanmaan hyvinvointialueeseen. Apurahahakemukset lähetetään osoitteeseen: miia.turpeinen(a)pohde.fi Hakuaika päättyy 7.4.2025. Tukisäätiön hallitus päättää apurahojen myöntämisestä toukokuussa 2025.

FW: MSCA PF-2025 Evaluation: Search for new Experts
by Salla Kangas 18 Mar '25

18 Mar '25

Hi all, European Commission is searching for new experts with life sciences background for their expert pool for evaluating Marie Skłodowska-Curie funding applications. You need to have PhD and be active in research to be eligible. I have participated evaluation process during 3 previous evaluation rounds in past years, which have taken place in the end of the year, usually around October-November. You get training (e-training course) for doing evaluations and monetary compensation for your time (training and evaluation process). That also gives new perspective for writing your own grant applications. So if you are interested, you can now volunteer! I can provide more information, if you like to know more, just ask! Kind regards, Salla From: REA-MSCA-HE-PF-LIF(a)ec.europa.eu <REA-MSCA-HE-PF-LIF(a)ec.europa.eu> Sent: maanantai 17. maaliskuuta 2025 16.47 To: REA-MSCA-HE-PF-LIF(a)ec.europa.eu Subject: MSCA PF-2025 Evaluation: Search for new Experts PLEASE DO NOT REPLY TO THIS EMAIL. Dear Expert, Last year you participated as an evaluator in the HORIZON MSCA PF-2024 evaluation. We hope you enjoyed the experience and you would recommend it to other potential experts. In view of the forthcoming 2025 evaluation we are looking for “new” qualified experts with Life Sciences background to increase our pool of experts (that already includes your name). For this reason, we have prepared a EU Survey - Call for Expression of Interest<https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/ExpressionInterestLifeSciencesExpert> – and we would be grateful if you could distribute this EU survey to your colleagues and/or to any person you know who has a relevant professional profile (having a Phd, still active in research, with recent publications etc.) and might be interested in participate in the evaluation. Please share/promote this survey as much as you can so that we would have a large response. Deadline to respond to this survey is: 15 April 2025 Link to the Survey: https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/ExpressionInterestLifeSciencesExpert Thank you very much for your cooperation.

Kontinkangas Research Seminar March 13, 15.15-16 in F202
by Pirkko Huhtala 13 Mar '25

13 Mar '25

Dear all, this week on Thursday March13, 15.15-16 in F202 there will be a seminar by Associate professor Daniela Ungureanu from Research Unit of Disease networks, Faculty of Biochemistry and Molecular Medicine, University of Oulu. The title of the seminar is: Single-cell transcriptomics of drug resistance in cancer and beyond. More about Dr. Ungureanu´s research: "My research focuses on understanding the signaling networks controlled by receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) during normal and aberrant cell growth such cancer. My goal is to assess the signaling pathways employed by Wnt-ligands binding RTKs in cancers and implement our research tools to determine to what extent targeting these molecules (alone or in combination) will improve cancer therapy. We are working with patient-derived tumor cells and perform molecular profiling such as assessments of cell growth in 2D and 3D, ex-vivo high throughput drug-responses analysis and transcriptomic profiling at the single cell level. This detailed information will help us to understand why/how these cancer cells respond differently to the various treatments, which could significantly improve cancer therapy in the future." Publications: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=daniela+ungureanu&sort=date Note the updated seminar programme below! Welcome everybody! No registration required. Coffee is served during networking session 20 min before the presentation time.

FW: NanoDropin käyttöohjeita
by Antti Haapalainen 06 Mar '25

06 Mar '25

From: Mirja Heinonen <mirja.heinonen(a)bionordika.fi> Sent: Thursday, March 6, 2025 10:13 AM To: Antti Haapalainen <antti.haapalainen(a)oulu.fi> Cc: Anu Luoto <anu.luoto(a)bionordika.fi> Subject: NanoDropin käyttöohjeita Hei Antti, Kävin siellä viime viikolla käyttökouluttamassa NanoDrop One käyttäjiä ja silloin tuli muutama kysymys, johon en osannut heti vastata tai josta lupasin laittaa lisätietoa. Sinun kauttasi viesti varmaan saavuttaa kaikki käyttäjät. Liitteenä pikaohje laitteelle ja alla ohjeita muutamaan asiaan. Identifierin lisääminen: Tähän on kaksi eri keinoa ja mielestäni me toimittiin ohjeen mukaisesti, mutta ehkä joku kohta meni kuitenkin pieleen. Kokeilisitteko vielä molempia ohjeen mukaisesti? [cid:image003.png@01DB8E7A.438474B0] [cid:image003.png@01DB8E7A.438474B0] Puhdistus: To avoid carryover and cross contamination, clean the pedestals before the first blank or sample measurement and at the end of each measurement. Supplies needed: * lint-free laboratory wipes * deionized water (DL H2O) * for thorough cleaning: Pr-1 kit or 0,5 M HCl To clean the pedestals between measurements Lift the instrument arm and clean the upper and lower pedestal with new laboratory wipe. To clean the pedestals between users 1. Lift the arm and clean both pedestals with new laboratory wipe. 2. Pipette 3-5 µL Dl H2O onto the lower pedestal 3. Lower the arm and wait 2-3 minutes. 4. Lift the arm and clean the upper and lower pedestal with new wipe. When thorough cleaning is required substitute 0,5 M HCl for the Dl H2O in the procedure above and follow with 3-5 µL Dl H2O. You can also recondition the pedestals using PR-1 compound. Kysyttiin mittausten tallentamisesta ja mittaukset tosiaan tallentuvat laitteelle automaattisesti ja ne voidaan poistaa sieltä joko yksi kerrallaan tai kaikki. Uudet mittaukset eivät mene vanhojen päälle, vaan kun muisti täyttyy niin vanhoja pitää poistaa. Laitteessa on iso muisti, mutta suosittelen, että tyhjennätte sen nyt tässä vaiheessa, sillä se on ollut niin monessa demossa, että mittauksia on kertynyt sinne aika paljon. Meidän olisi pitänyt tehdä tämä ennen kuin laite tuli teille, mutta emme silloin vielä tienneet, että laite jää käyttöönne. Vastaan mielelläni mahdollisiin kysymyksiin. Ystävällisin terveisin, Mirja Mirja Heinonen Tuotepäällikkö / Product Manager [cid:image001.jpg@01DB8E79.70756390] BioNordika Oy +358 (0)40 2157 585 mirja.heinonen(a)bionordika.fi<mailto:mirja.heinonen@bionordika.fi> www.bionordika.fi<http://www.bionordika.fi/>
