The University of Eastern Finland organizes two times a year the Academic year´s Sports afternoon 🤗 Kuopio Brain & Mind and Neurocenter Finland´s coordinating unit decided to spend the Sports afternoon by enjoying the nature at Vuorilampi by walking, observing the beauty and multidimensionality of the nature and just by being present in the moment 💛 And our plan worked as one of the perfect examples of how to utilize nature for your brain health 🍃 When was the last time you left the office, if not for a whole afternoon, but for an hour with your co-workers and just enjoyed? Or left the office to take a walking meeting in the nature? #Brainhealth at its best 🧠 Neurocenter Finland #Codedtoconnect #Nature #Enjoy

I have been acting as Professor in Molecular Neurodegeneration at A.I. Virtanen Institute at University of Eastern Finland since June 1, 2023. Last Friday, September 27, 2024 I was thrilled to finally give my inaugural lecture on our current and upcoming research on #frontotemporal_dementia in the Faculty of Health Sciences University of Eastern Finland. I want to express my warmest thanks to all my 💎amazing group members, colleagues, friends, and family for supporting my path to professorship. I also wish to thank all the #funding sources who have supported our research over the years as well as the #patients and #controls for generously donating samples to our research projects 🌹. #FTD #endFTD #FinFTD #UEFneuroscience #AIVI Kuopio Brain & Mind
