Scientific leaps cannot be taken overnight - Sigrid Jusélius Foundation There are no quick wins in top medical research. Ville Hietakangas, who studies the effect of food on our physiology, asks for patience and trust from those who fund science.

Professor Ville Hietakangas calls for patience from research funders: the time frame in basic research is long, and financial concerns undermine creativity. Read more in our article: sigridjuselius.fi/en/news/scie...

Europe’s choice is clear.

To put science at the heart of its economy.

To become the home of scientific freedom and collaboration.

And to welcome talent from all over the world.

I’m glad to present the first elements of our Choose Europe Initiative.

Thrilled to see this paper out!! 🧪

Spatial transcriptomics of brain aging and 'spatial aging clocks' identify cells that have pro-aging or pro-rejuvenating effects on their neighbors!

Huge CONGRATS to Eric Sun and all authors! Fantastic collaboration with @jameszou.bsky.social!
