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.
A growing global population requires increasing amounts of sustainable and nutritious food.
The main goal is to evaluate the effects of human land use on fish populations and to create indicator-based tools to detect changes in these populations.

This research aims to identify how private and public financing should be strategically directed, and governance instruments accordingly designed, to drive transformation of vital production systems towards becoming more sustainable and resilient.
The co-occurrence of two or more non-communicable conditions (multimorbidity) in an individual represents a major public health challenge in ageing societies.
The research utilizes and develops next- and third-generation genome sequencing and data analysis methods to provide new information on the transmission sources and epidemiology of foodborne bacterial pathogens and antimicrobial resistance and to strengthen analytical preparedness for microbial food safety threats.
