Puhdas ilma - ihmisoikeus vai luksusta? Mira Hulkkonen @UniOulu esittelee Atmos-hanketta @OuluBeamTeam, joka on rahoitettu @SuomenAkatemia #AIPSE-akatemiaohjelmassa. #tekoäly #liikenne #tiedettäkaupungissa #tutkimus

Night train from Oulu to Helsinki was packed. They must have heard that someone from ATMOS is giving a talk in the Science in the City 2019 event today! #ScienceDays #tieteenpäivät #scicomm

@nickfalkner There sure are some grand hats in RDR2 https://t.co/6fYLb6S3eq

ATMOS representing Oulu University at the #ClimateUniversity kick-off. @Climamira quite happy about her role in the sustainability game, although the key message of all the fun was that everybody is needed if we aim to map and tackle the challenges.

Not long now until the Les Enfants Terribles project begins....

Luckily for all, there was no Vegemite in sight.

@nickfalkner I feel like we should stock up on these now. Who knows how soon we'll need to ride eternal, shiny and chrome.

Oh no, I'm on @OuluBeamTeam baking duty this week. Do I:

@OuluBeamTeam WHO MADE THIS?!?

[ATMOS @Atmos_Research]

That moment when doing thermodynamics modeling for cannabis extraction gets more media attention than using the same technique for complex atmospheric research. Our collaborators at @helsinkiuni got to know this when they hosted another researcher. https://t.co/8RSsz9CAo9

[ATMOS @Atmos_Research]

That's us. :D

Nønne Prisle studies climate & health effects of nanoparticles in the air. One of her current focuses is in AI to study #airpollution on dynamic time scale and effect of single citizen transport decisions in it.https://t.co/xiKAs2JHiG @SuomenAkatemia #ERC #climatechange #purefact

Working with OpenStreetMap data of Helsinki today and it's the most complete OSM dataset I've ever seen...

I’ve got a few more:

YOU’RE ALLOWED TO SAY NO TO THINGS

YOU’RE ALLOWED TO TELL PEOPLE HOW YOU FEEL

YOU’RE ALLOWED *TO* FEEL

LOOK AFTER YOUR COLLEAGUES, STUDENTS, COLLABORATORS.

LOOK AFTER YOURSELF.

[James Grant @James_A_Grant]

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay18 and to myself and my fellow academics a few reminders:

YOUR HEALTH IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN YOUR WORK.

YOU ARE MORE THAN YOUR PUBLICATIONS.

YOU DESERVE TO HAVE WEEKENDS.

YOU ARE TALENTED.

@nickfalkner Is it asked by Roger Daltrey though?

[Gramophone @GramophoneMag]

We celebrate the life of Jean Sibelius, who died on 20 September 1957.

To most people he is the composer of Finlandia and the Karelia Suite; to others he is a great symphony composer; to the people of Finland he is these things and a national hero...https://t.co/6HpubDVuDH
