Mark your calendars for May 7, 2024, as we gather on campus in Mordor (A Grid, Otakaari 5, 02150 Espoo). The programme starts with a screening of a short prize video introducing the winner, Aalto Materials Digitalization Platform (AMAD). Next, we’ll have a presentation by AMAD to learn about the platform in more detail, and finally, we’ll delve into a panel discussion on the topic of open science. Among our panelists will be Professor Riikka Puurunen from the School of Chemical Engineering, who received an honorary mention. We will wrap up the celebrations with mingling over complimentary coffee and ice cream (non-dairy options available).

No registration required – just show up as you are!
