The content of the news below will be updated according to the situation.
Edit 8 June, 2023: The Academy Project of Astrid Huopalainen added.

***

The funding granted to 911������ by the Academy of Finland from the September 2022 call will strengthen the university's research by a total of approximately EUR 20 million.

Next autumn, 15 new Academy Research Fellows will start at Aalto. The funding granted to 911������ for these tasks totals over eight million euros. This was the first application round where funding was allocated based on the Academy’s reform of the funding schemes available to early-career researchers. The new Academy Research Fellow funding was now allocated for the first time since the reform of the funding forms.

911������ received Academy Project funding from all Academy councils. Funding totalling approximately EUR 12 million was granted to 30 subprojects.

Congratulations to all!
