“IN THE SPOTLIGHT” grantees 2022

Field of View research program aims to promote public understanding and appreciation of science and thus, opened a grant call “In the spotlight” for science communications projects in 1.11.—2.12.2022.

The committee has now evaluated all the proposals and decided to award “In the spotlight” grant to five different projects that are aimed at highlighting ongoing research projects and raising public awareness of outstanding research teams.“In the spotlight” grantees are:

·     Mira Minkkinen, BSc; Faculty of Science and Engineering, Åbo Akademi University
·     Riku Klén, PhD, Assistant professor, Turku PET Centre, University of Turku
·     Francisco M. Acosta, PhD; Turku PET Centre, Turku University Hospital, University of Turku
·     Marie-Catherine Laisne, PhD student; Cell biologi, Åbo Akademi University
·     Laura Ekblad, MD, PhD; Turku PET Centre, Turku University Hospital, University of Turku

The grantees will have their science communications project produced by Multimedia producer Henok Karvonen from Life Science Pixel Lab during the spring 2023. We congratulate all the grantees and look forward to see the produced material next year!
