Love letter from Emma Thompson to Finland (after filming here, in the snow). English original version comes after the Finnish translation.

I am not sure if this is freely available to all…? It is published in a local (= Helsinki) newspaper.

.@SuomenAkatemia has awarded funding to six new projects from @AaltoUniversity researchers totalling roughly €1.25M. 💶

Those involved include @robin_ras, @samikaski, @JaanPraks, Sorin Paraoanu, Anouar Belahcen, and Nuutti Hyvönen. Congratulations all!

What's lurking in the dark? 🌌 Could dark matter indeed be composed of the strange axion particle?

Aalto researchers join the DarkQuantum consortium to explore these cosmic questions, and the group just received €12.9M in new @ERC_Research funding.

Congratulations to Sorin Paraoanu @AaltoUniversity - and of course all the other #ERCSyG teams!

[Aalto University @AaltoUniversity]

Now published in @NatureChemistry, a team led by @robin_ras has created one of the most water-repellent surfaces ever. This innovative technique defies traditional wisdom on water-surface friction, opening doors in optics, microfluidics, cooking, and more. https://t.co/cwTZghVxDP
