The winner of Skolar 2019 @hausmaninger has been busy working, testing and speaking about his plant breathalyzer ever since he was awarded with 100K. Read what's up with Thomas: https://t.co/e3tJSKbmbm
Scientists: this is an EXCELLENT reminder of what to take into account when presenting your research. 3 videos. Only 10 minutes. Worth your time! #PresentLikeAninja#scicomm
"When it came to experimental physics I could never let it be “good enough” and always wanted to improve things and try yet another idea." My interview with @hausmaninger, who won @SkolarMe's global research pitching competition last year https://t.co/lnsjQg5mxe
Free research pitching advice from #scicomm specialists? Yes please! Take a look at these three excellent video trainings brought to you by @SkolarMe and take your #pitching and presenting skills to the next level 💎 #researchpitching https://t.co/78RFAKjhjn

Large scale indoor farming can become the next big thing in food production. We need to better understand plants and the conditions in which they can thrive. Read more about the idea of @hausmaninger, winner of Research Pitching Competition 2019: https://t.co/TrUnufDDhY #slush19
A round of applause to the winner of the Reseach Pitching Competition 2019: Thomas Hausmaninger/ VVT Finland who wins 100k funding for optimizing plant growth to solve the world's food crisis 🏆 #slush19

The winner of Research Pitching Competition by @SlushHQ & @SkolarMe 2019 is @hausmaninger @VTTFinland! The 100 000 euros will help his goal of creating a breathalyser test for plants to understand & create ideal conditions for indoor farming. CONGRATULATIONS! #skolar#slush19🎉
The media is looking for eyeballs and stimulation, but researchers are careful about making bold statements & predicting the future. Can science communication help bridge this gap? "Synthesis is a key step for science influence," says @vivianchan_s citing David Dickson. #slush19
So exciting to see the huge crowd and the impressive venue that @SlushHQ provides for the @SkolarMe research pitching competition. Very important for encouraging science-innovators!
PS. Great co-hosting by our own @Steph_Nataly from @INAR_fin! 💙💙 #HelsinkiImpact#slush19
As we wait for the results, we’ll hear a panel discussion on the difficulties #deeptech startups face on their path from lab to market. Oversimplification in the media is one major issue. Discussing the topic are @JanGoetz6, @vivianchan_s, @benjaminjoffe & @gemmamilne#slush19
We’ve now heard all the pitches from this year’s #researchpitching competition. The jury will now retire for a moment to decide which one of these excellent research ideas will go home w/ the 100K € #SkolarAward! We’ll be back in half an hour, so stay tuned! #skolar#slush19
Did you know that wood contains lots of useful information for the battle against climate change? “Wood is like a tree’s climate diary,” says @ttrademacher @Harvard & @NAU. His idea is to automate the collection of data from wood samples & share it on an open database. #slush19
Global food production is the hot topic of the day! Thomas Hausmaninger @VTTFinland wants to create best possible conditions for indoor farming with a breathalyser test for plants. "Vertical farms would need 95 % less water & 50x less land than what is currently used." #slush19
