*Open position* Are you interested in the fundamental #regulation of #photosynthesis and the role of #flavodiiron proteins? We have an opening for #PhD student/#PostDoc in our group focusing on this topic. See link for more info. Please RT ats.talentadore.com/apply/tutkijat…

Doctoral researcher's position in my new project at Turun yliopisto - University of Turku is now open! Apply here to do a #PhD studying the role of the proton motive force in regulation of #photosynthesis in #cyanobacteria: ats.talentadore.com/apply/vaitoski… #phdpositions

Another great visit from Kerttulin ICT-lukio in our labs. Two groups of students got to immobilise #cyanobacteria in alginate and observe #photosynthesis and #respiration with a pH indicator, and measure the Fv/Fm parameter of #Arabidopsis plants. Happy to welcome you again! #Science

*New article published* Employing photocurable biopolymers to engineer photosynthetic 3D-printed living materials for production of chemicals Congratulations to Tóth Gábor Szilveszter and co-authors!

Say hi to Iida-Maria, one of our newest PhD researchers! She has a MSc in Biology from University of Oulu and joins us to study the plant growth-promoting and anti-fungal effects of #microalgae extracts. When not in the lab, you can find her in the CrossFit gym 💪 #PhDlife #PhDchat

Great talks at the Biofoundries for Bioeconomy at #ChemBioFinland2024 by @YagutRinne and Tóth Gábor Szilveszter. Great opportunity for networking and keeping up to date with state-of-the-art technologies.

Today, we had an opening event for our AlgaTech facilities in Ruissalo Botanical Garden. Opening words by @YagutRinne and projects introduction by semasirin. Thanks for the great organisation and good time spent networking with collaborators and colleagues. #algae REALM algae

Students from #TSYK high school visited us in April to learn about #photosynthesis, #microalgae and our #research. With the help of Iia, Tuomas and Laura they got hands-on experience with microalgae immobilisation and photoinhibition fluorescence measurements. #outreach #science

Meet Pulmu, who is a co-supervised PhD student in the Photo-e-mat project founded by Suomen Akatemia | Research Council of Finland . She mainly works in the Materials chemistry research group - UTU to study #sustainable anode materials for #biophotovoltaic applications. With us, she's learning more about #photosynthesis and #cyanobacteria.

Excellent representation by our Doctoral researchers at the Nordic #Algae Symposium in Copenhagen 🇩🇰 Great opportunity to network and share their exciting research with the community 🦠 #phdlife #phdlife

Microalgae can grow in greenhouse drain water. We're testing this concept also in Finland under the climatic and light conditions of Northern Europe. We installed a fully operational facility to validate the REALM concept at pilot scale: 1 m3. #BlueBioeconomy

Many chemicals can be sustainably synthesised by microorganisms such as cyanobacteria and microalgae. A new dissertation highlights the versatility of photosynthetic microorganisms for applications in different solid-state chemical production systems. utu.fi/en/news/events…

Yesterday, we enjoyed the summer day of the Faculty of Technology Turun yliopisto - University of Turku. Great day filled with tasty food, good company, and sunshine. ☀️

We have a PostDoc position in microbial #photosynthesis, extracellular electron transfer & sustainability! Join our international Photosynthetic Microbes team at Turun yliopisto - University of Turku, Finland, and engage in excellent multidisciplinary work. Please retweet and help us spread the word. @YagutRinne

Earlier this week the International Symposium on Photosynthesis Research took place here in Turku honouring the work of Eva-Mari Aro. Many experts on #photosynthesis have gathered to deliver keynotes, lectures and insights into their work. Read more in the news article bellow 📰
