A new super-cooled microwave source boosts the scale-up of quantum computers
Researchers in Finland have developed a circuit that produces the high-quality microwave signals required to control quantum computers while operating at temperatures near absolute zero. This is a key step towards moving the control system closer to the quantum processor, which may make it possible to greatly increase the number of qubits in the processor.
A new layer-by-layer built inorganic-organic material enables optical switching of magnetic properties
Materials chemists have developed a facile process for piling ultrathin inorganic and organic layers in a pre-designed manner into flexible room-temperature thin-film magnets, whose magnetic properties can be controlled with successive external light illuminations.

SUMMER INTERNSHIPS AT THE FINANCE FACULTY
We are primarily looking for students majoring in Finance, but we also welcome applications from students with other quantitatively oriented backgrounds. Completion of a Bachelor’s thesis or other relevant experience is a plus.
Finnish researchers developed mini-breast cancer as a new weapon against the most common type of breast cancer
Breast cancer researchers from the University of Helsinki and material scientists from Aalto University have jointly developed a gel-grown “mini-breast cancer” that will help uncover more effective treatments against hormone-dependent breast cancer.
The role of wastewater treatment plants in the global health threat of 21st century
The spread of antibiotic resistance is a global health threat addressed by the WHO. One of the ways the antibiotic resistance spreads is through wastewater. Researchers from Water & Environmental Engineering group studied the spread of antibiotic resistance from wastewater treatment plants in Finland and found out that more needs to be done to address the issue.
