Aalto-Helsinki 2021

Aalto-Helsinki 2021 is a student group consisting of ten students from the two top Finnish universities: Aalto University and the University of Helsinki. With skills in bioinformatics, genetics, psychology, neuroscience, molecular biosciences, engineering, microbiology, and biotechnology, our team is not only international but also diverse. The exceptional scientific work we do is made possible by the unique collaboration between Aalto University and the University of Helsinki, which provides us with multidisciplinary skills, a broad support network, and first-rate resources. Thus, our goal is to create an innovative solution to a scientific real-life problem by bringing various fields of study together for higher value creation.
