The program will hire 85 postdoctoral researchers to 12 Finnish government research institutes between 2025 and 2028. Postdoctoral researchers will drive impactful, high-level research bridging science, industry, and administration.
The programme is supported by Finland’s long-term R&D funding. The purpose of State’s R&D funding, together with R&D investments from the businesses sector, is to raise Finland’s R&D expenditure to 4% of GDP by 2030.
Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) play an important role in sustainable fish farming to meet global food demands, but they generate nutrient-rich sludge in large volumes during the production.
This research will advance global high-resolution climate modeling within a European consortium developing digital twins of the Earth system.
Critical metals are essential for the global transition to a sustainable, low-carbon future. This project supports Europe’s urgent need for critical raw materials by exploring Finland’s ancient crust.
This research investigates how to improve the structure-property analysis of materials using machine learning interatomic potentials.
The main objective is to accelerate the discovery of novel steels for hydrogen applications using high-throughput strategies and the development of the materials acceleration platform concept. It will accelerate the additive manufacturing of previously unattainable high-strength, tough steels.
The concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are constantly rising, and unexpected evolution of the carbon dioxide sinks and sources has drawn attention recently.
