Students and trainees are the researchers and scientists of the future! It is a pleasure to have talented young people involved in the EDCMET project. At the moment, at University of Eastern Finland, we have Anni Tolvanen working in the #EDCMETteam.👩🏼‍🔬#EDCs #metabolicdisruptors #H2020 Horizon 2020

Have you ever heard of horseback archery? It's probably a bit extreme for first-timers so we decided to try them one at a time in our summer activity day. 😉 Riding on the Icelandic horses and doing archery were super fun! 🐎☀️🏹 #rytsyretket

EDCMET researchers Henriikka Hakomäki and Sini Pitkänen are taking over University of Eastern Finland #instagram for the next couple of days 👩‍🔬. Take a peek to see what they are up to 🧐. instagram.com/uniuef?igshid=… #weareuef #EDCs #H2020 Horizon Europe 🇪🇺 A.I. Virtanen Institute @ToxUEF @uef_farmasia

Exciting new EDCMET publication! 🚨 In vitro test battery to assess lipid metabolism in hepatocytes. Also #AdiporedAssay for TG accumulation is presented. 🧫 The protocol is suitable for assessing both single substances and mixture effects. Take a look: star-protocols.cell.com/protocols/2941

Having students involved in projects benefits all! At University of Eastern Finland, Pauliina Pinta joined our #EDCMETteam. Pauliina does her master's thesis on the effects of NRF2 transcription factor activation on human energy metabolism. #EDCs #H2020 @uef_farmasia @AIV_institute #WeAreUEF

What a great day ☺️ Thank you so much for supporting my doctoral research for the next two years! UEF Doctoral Programme in Molecular Medicine
