Best blueberry juice on the planet
Hello University of Helsinki! If it weren't for the productive days and great company, the blueberry juice alone would have been reason enough to come. Some even say that this juice is so successful that they've built an entire airline around it. π

Is that a call for submissions? :)
Research funding calls that drain the research community. Broad calls with little funding likely cost the research community than the funding it provides. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-04060-x
A heartfelt thank you also to Felix Dobslaw for this excellent opposition, and to Emma SΓΆderberg, Burak Turhan, and Brian Fitzgerald for joining the grading committee and fostering such engaging discussions. Thank you!
Congratulations Dr. Michael Dorner (@michaeldorner.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy) for successfully defending your PhD on βCode Review as a Communication Networkβ. It was an honour supporting you as an advisor and I learnt a lot from you. SERL Sweden will miss you!
