How can we find the interior structure of the Earth from earthquake data?
This webinar will be presented by Professor Joonas Ilmavirta (University of Jyväskylä).
Can one deduce the internal structure of the Earth from seismic measurements? Professor Ilmavirta will explain how this problem can be approached with geometric tools, and what kinds of differential and algebraic geometry play a role when the material is anisotropic.

Predictive brain image computation
This webinar will be presented by Professor Jussi Tohka (University of Eastern Finland).
Tohka is a Full Professor of Biomedical Image Analysis and head of Biomedical Image Analysis Group at A.I. Virtanen Institute for Molecular Sciences of University of Eastern Finland. His research focuses on developing new methods to analyze imaging data and developing machine learning approaches for predicting the course of brain diseases at individual level.

Integrating modelling domains for the patient digital twins
The first 15 Minutes of FAME of 2025 will be presented by Professor Jari Hyttinen (Tampere University).
Prof. Hyttinen’s Computational Biophysics and Imaging Group laboratory at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Technology develops novel computer simulations on cellular biophysics, body–on-chip technologies, and test tube environment 3D imaging methods for future personalised medicine. He is also coordinating an EU-funded project SMASH-HCM that aims to develop patient digital twin technologies for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy heart disease stratification and risk assessment.

Digital Geography Lab: Sustainable and greener cities with big data analytics and spatial modelling
This webinar will be presented by Professor Tuuli Toivonen (University of Helsinki).
Toivonen’s research focuses on understanding dynamics of people, places, and their interactions, with open/big data, spatial analytics, and machine learning approaches playing an important role. Her European Research Council grant project GREENTRAVEL combines advanced mapping and spatial modelling of environmental exposure during everyday trips to controlled experimentations in VR. Toivonen’s multidisciplinary Digital Geography Lab research team contributes to a wide range of research from urban geography, land use and transport planning to sustainability and conservation science.
