ACRIS implemented at Aalto SCI

ACRIS brings together the results of our scientific and artistic activities in a comprehensive manner.

ACRIS (Aalto Current Research Information System) is our new research information system, replacing the earlier TKKJulkaisee, TKKTutkii and TKKToimii systems as well as the ReseDan system used by Aalto ARTS and the RESCAT system used by BIZ. ACRIS brings together the results of our scientific and artistic activities in a comprehensive manner. The ACRIS system is used at Aalto to evaluate productivity and for reporting on our research and other activities to the Ministry of Education and Culture. As a researcher, ACRIS means that rather than having to enter all your publication information personally, the Aalto library will automatically import the information from the Web of Science and Scopus databases.

You can log in to ACRIS at acris.aalto.fi.

ACRIS has just been implemented, and we hope that every SCI researcher will check their personal and publication information. At this time, the publication information covers 2010–2016, but information from earlier years will be added during the latter part of this year. If any of your publications from 2010–2016 are missing, add them to the system yourself.

Assistance and support available at events and online

Instructions for using the system are available online:
- Main page for ACRIS instructions
- Instructions for new users
- Instructions for checking information 

I encourage you to participate in the department-specific ACRIS training sessions being held at SCI.

Olli Ikkala and Esa Saarinen found a common thread in baroque music and lecturing

Olli Ikkala will continue his research on nature-inspired materials and will find himself again as an organist after his busy research career. Esa Saarinen, on the other hand, continued to lecture the Philosophy and Systems Thinking (Filosofia ja systeemiajattelu) course to packed halls this spring. When they met, they discussed the organ and the atmosphere of the lectures.
