CEST goes Oodi
CEST group members Jari Järvi, Lauri Himanen, Milica Todorović and Patrick Rinke participated in the Aalto Junior outreach and scientific education program at Helsinki Central Library Oodi this week. They designed an interactive exhibit that demonstrates how artificial intelligence (AI) can speed up the search for molecular compounds and their structure. Such compounds are important in medical, pharmaceutical and technological research and applications. In the exhibit, school children can create their own 3D models of molecules and compete with the AI in finding the best structural arrangement of the molecule. The exhibit was previously on display in the AI in Arts exhibition in Dipoli, Otaniemi, organized by Aalto Digi Platform in 2019.
The exhibit features the BOSS method and software package that was developed by the CEST group. More information can be found in the following publication

Measuring urban nature: new habitat types and criteria support the prevention of biodiversity loss
A recent report introduces an anthropogenic habitat classification and assessment criteria that make it possible to visualize, measure, and compare nature in the built environment. These tools enable the assessment of ecological condition and support the development of green infrastructure and the prevention of biodiversity loss in cities.Online Writing retreats for doctoral students in Finnish in spring 2026
