Nanoscience is a cross-disciplinary research area which combines physics, chemistry, and biological and environmental science. The protonation state of each ionisable group of a molecule influences, mainly via its charge, the physicochemical properties, the structure and the function of the molecule. Determination of the protonation states in complex macromolecular systems is not an easy task, as it depends on the electrostatic environment of a ionisable group, and on the solution pH. During the summer school, most recent experimental and computational approaches to identify protonation states in proteins are discussed, and hand-on practicals provided.
In particular, nuclear mass resonance and infrared spectroscopy for measuring proton equilibria will be described, together with computational methods, such as molecular dynamics simulations at constant pH and Poisson-Boltzmann methods for predicting protonation states. The last day of the course, we will have a poster session and a round table to discuss challenges and more recent advances inherent to these methods. Previous courses in chemical physics, physical chemistry, or biological chemistry are appreciated. A written book examination. Can be done at the general bioenv examination dates.

For natural resources, there are often complex decision situations and variable interactions, involving spatial or spatio-temporal modeling. How can we quantitatively analyze and evaluate different information sources in this context? What is the value of data and how much data is enough? The course covers multidisciplinary concepts required for conducting value of information analysis in multivariate and spatial models. Participants will gain an understanding for the integration of spatial statistical modeling and decision analysis for evaluating information gathering schemes.
The value of information is computed before purchasing data, and can be useful for checking if data acquisition or processing is worth its price, or for comparing various experiments. The course will build a framework of perfect versus imperfect information, and total versus partial information where only a subset of the data is acquired or processed. This is studied and compared with alternative information criteria such as entropy, variance and prediction error, which are also commonly used in applications. The course uses slide presentations and runs hands-on projects on the computer in Matlab and R.
The examples demonstrate value of information analysis in various applications, including environmental sciences, petroleum and mining. In these situations the decision maker could make better decisions by purchasing information at a price via for instance surveying, borehole tests, seismic or electromagnetic data. Calculus, probability and statistics, basic computer programming. Although it is not essential, it helps to know about multivariate analysis and optimization. Obligatory attendance at lectures and completion of project work using Matlab or R or other software.

It is a collaborative ongoing activity led by the World Wide Web Consortium W3C to promote common data formats on the World Wide Web specifically for machine-processable and machine understandable data aiming to convert the current web, dominated by unstructured and semi-structured documents, into a "web of data" often referred as Web 3.
Publishing machine-understandable data on the web is going as a mainstream. Linked Data the activity originated from the Semantic Web vision has seen explosive growth over the past few years. This enables data from different sources to be connected and queried. For example, DBPedia is a collection of data structured in RDF after being extracted from the Wikipedia, which allows Semantic Web-based applications to automatically infer implicit or new data and make advanced queries over the Wikipedia-derived dataset. The FOAF Friend-of-a-Friend is another example of how the Semantic Web attempts to make use of the data about people and their relationships within a social context.
Organization of data based on RDF graph model makes it possible to connect data from distinct heterogeneous sources, organize and query huge volumes Big Data challenge of data. Ontologies are helpful to provide interoperability among various schemas used in the data and enable applications automatically discover and explore new previously unknown sources of data.
Semantic-Web-standards-driven so-called Semantic Technology as a software technology allows the meaning of information to be known and processed at execution time of various applications making them naturally interoperable in the Web and within various digital ecosystems and clouds. Therefore as a summary: Related to these, the Linked Data activity aims to expose, share, and connect distributed pieces of data, information, and knowledge; to extend the Web by publishing various open datasets and by setting semantic links between data items from different data sources.
The Semantic Web vision assumes annotating Web resources with machine-interpretable descriptions metadata referred to shared conceptual vocabularies ontologies , and provides mechanisms for automated reasoning about them.

In the fall of , when I looked forward to my graduation the following spring from Iowa State University, I thought I might have three choices about what to do next. I could go to work for the U.
My degree was to be in forest management, and I had worked in the Pacific Northwest on forest inventory for the previous two summers. They had indicated they would give me a permanent position in forest inventory.
I loved the Northwest, and permanent positions were hard to come by just then. I thought that was the most probable choice. Also, I had been in Reserve Officers Training in college, and, although the part of it I was in was for the Army, the Marine Corps thought they had a place for me in a reserve officers training program.
That was also, at the time, a rare opportunity, but I was hesitant about the time of service required. But it sounded pretty good. Finally, I had applied for a Fulbright graduate fellowship to Finland. This was the wild card. My cousin Diane had met and married a Finnish forester while in college, and they then lived in Helsinki where Pentti was doing graduate work in forestry and mathematics.
Her descriptions of Finland and its forests and people fascinated me. Also, at the time, I knew that I wanted someday to go on to graduate school in some aspect of forest biology, and forest genetics seemed to be especially advanced and appreciated in Finland at that time. But the word was that Fulbrights were very hard to get, competition was fierce, and I discounted my chances of getting one. My surprise was, then, total, when I was notified that I was awarded a Fulbright and I was almost as surprised when I immediately accepted it.
It is perhaps overly dramatic to say so, but nevertheless true, that my life changed fundamentally and forever as a result of that choice. My first trip abroad, my only trip on an ocean liner jets put them out of business just a few years later , and my first taste of graduate school came together with exposure to new languages, and new ways of looking at the world. Good luck played a major part in making my stay in Finland longer and better even than I had anticipated. First, as I entered the University of Helsinki by signing the book and paying my fee the equivalent of ten dollars as I recall , I was given an advisor who has remained a mentor and friend to this day, Professor Peitsa Mikola.
Through his guidance, several things happened. I became a degree candidate, instead of just a visitor, and this allowed me to take lecture series and exams that gave me knowledge I still use today. Second, knowing of my interest in forest biology and genetics, he contacted the Forest Research Institute of Finland, and I was allowed to develop my own research project at the research station in Ruotsinkyla, under the direction of Dr.
Also there, and of immense help, was Peter Tigerstedt, who became and still is a close friend. He tutored me in genetics, cross-country skiing, and even attempted to improve my social skills with Finnish girls. Through the next year and a half, I happily took courses and field trips with Finnish forestry students, worked on the research that became the basis for my doctoral dissertation when I returned to the United States at Christmastime, , and came to love Helsinki with its concerts and parks.
Tigerstedt s social tutoring must have had some effect, because in I married Helka Lehtinen from Helsinki and am married to her today. Professor Mikola s Dr. His primary expertise is in the biological basis of forest productivity, the management of research, and forest policy. Gordon has extensive consulting experience with public and private organizations, including forest product firms, the World Bank and the United Nations Development program.
He has authored or coauthored over publications, and has overseas experience in a variety of places, including India, Pakistan, China, Costa Rica, Brazil, Argentina, Finland, and Scotland. The other American Fulbright forester of was Bill Emmingham, who married one of my wife s high school classmates.
He has also spent several years working on arms control negotiations, including the Strategic Arms Reduction Talks or START and the negotiations on a treaty to ban chemical weapons. An introduction to molecular ecology. The Mid-Career Professional Development Grant, in particular, is intended for professionals in all fields, who wish to take a sabbatical leave of months from normal work duties to pursue a research project, further education or training in Finland. Finally, the convergence of entropic interpolations to displacement interpolations on graphs will be investigated.

Bill became another lifelong friend, and later, my faculty colleague at Oregon State University and a leader in forestry extension and research. It is impossible, in a short article, to convey the richness of my Fulbright experience. Much later, I had the honor of attending, on behalf of Yale, a recognition dinner for Senator Fulbright, at which he spoke. His enthusiastic, but politically motivated, introducer spoke of the benefits of bringing American academic knowledge and skills to the world. The Senator, when his turn came, discounted this. He said what he had hoped to do was make American academics aware that there was a large, complex and important world outside their national borders.
If either side learned something in the process, that was ok, but the main goal was a broadening and deepening of their awareness of the world. All I can say is that it worked on me, in spades. Being a Fulbrighter in Finland this year has enabled me to spend quality time in areal and contact linguistics researching the lexical influence of Russian on the Balto-Finnic languages, particularly on Ingrian-Finnish. My work in documenting an endangered Finno-Ugric relative has brought me closer to knowing the social, economic and historical situation of a unique ethnic minority.
This lesser-known dialect, branching from Old Karelian, is losing its struggle to survive not only as a linguistic, but also as a cultural entity. Indigenous Ingrians, who were converted to Orthodoxy, had inhabited the eastern corner of the Gulf of Finland since medieval times, when first mention of them were chronicled in Old Russian. In the s, many Lutheran Finns migrated to the area and eventually had some fate in building Peter the Great s new Russia capital, which was founded practically in the middle of Ingria, on Balto-Finnic territory.
After Stalin s fateful russification policies beginning in the late s, the number of Ingrian Finns drastically diminished until now only a few hundred speakers exist. Such events remain at the heart of the surviving community and are open to all those who wish to experience what remains of Ingrian culture.
It is, however, not easily accessible to everyone. Most Ingrian Finns under seventy years of age speak only Russian. Our musical rehearsals, for example, were always conducted in Russian, although the folk songs themselves were in Ingrian-Finnish mostly what they had remembered from their childhood and wished to preserve in some fashion. Many are taking Finnish language classes, as well as computer and job placement The greatest lesson I have learned thus far here in Helsinki, is not to assume that hearing spoken Russian on Mannerheimintie necessarily means those speakers are ethnic Russians.
Two generations of Finnish relatives have now lost their heritage language and for various socioeconomic reasons, have had to adopt Russian to survive. After being allowed to immigrate to Finland in the early s, once proving Ingrian-Finnish lineage, many are still struggling with that integral and fragile part of their cultural identity language.
Michele Terray, Graduate Grantee As a linguist I cannot limit myself to universities and research archives. It is necessary to work with people and communities, as well! The Ingrian community center has allowed me to participate in folk singing and dancing performances, solemn dedications to previous generations, church In addition to researching Ingrian-Finnish linguistics, Michele Terray participates in folk dancing with the Ingrian community.
Economics is a broad area of study. Several definitions of the discipline exist and are debated. Economics, however, may simply be described as the study of markets of goods and services to examine social outcomes. The breadth of the discipline is apparent as economics is now often applied to questions concerning political systems and environmental quality and natural resource usage. Economics can be studied in at least four different academic departments; economics departments, agricultural economics departments, forestry departments and natural resource departments.
The choice of which department to enter should be determined by a student s objective in studying economics. This includes not only the area of study but also the student s future plans and the use he intends to make of his education. Undergraduate Study The study of economics at the undergraduate level differs from its study at the graduate level. Undergraduates typically use policy oriented analysis that is much less mathematically rigorous. Choice of an undergraduate program should be determined by the department s areas of specialization and the commitment of the department to its undergraduate program.
When planning one s undergraduate program and selecting courses, a student should consider that graduate study in economics is often very mathematical. Students considering pursuing a graduate degree in economics will benefit greatly from including several math courses in their undergraduate program. Almost all colleges and universities in the U. The best way to locate a suitable program is through conventional resources and guides to undergraduate programs. Graduate Study In a graduate program, the professor or professors that a student works with will have the greatest influence on the student s education.
In choosing a program a student should have some idea of what professors he wishes to work with and whether those professors will be interested in working with him. A few contacts with the departments and professors that the student is interested in working with will give him some indication of whether they are willing to take time to work with students. If they seem unwilling to do that, a student may wish to consider a different professor to work with or a different department altogether. Many students of graduate economics receive department funding.
Typically, tuition waivers and stipends to provide living expenses are offered to graduate students. Students are usually required to work as teaching assistants or research assistants to obtain this funding. Often research work performed for an assistantship can be used to satisfy your thesis or dissertation requirements.
Economics Economics departments have the broadest scope. They typically include microeconomics, macroeconomics and econometrics. Economics departments are likely the only schools offering specialization in macroeconomics and its subareas. Often economics departments offer study in several subareas within macroeconomics and microeconomics such as monetary policy, and law and economics. In selecting a school, careful consideration of the program specifics is important. Departments differ greatly in offered areas of specialization. At the graduate level, most economics departments offer a master s degree but the concentration is on the Ph.
If a student would like to pursue a master s degree, it is wise to choose a school carefully. Many master s programs are stepping stones for the Ph. Alat ja ammatit Alat ja ammatit -sarjassa amerikkalaiset Fulbrightstipendiaatit kirjoittavat omasta opiskelustaan Yhdysvalloissa. Graduate study in economics departments tends to be the most theoretical and often concentrates on the development of mathematical models. While theoretical understanding of economics is important for all applied research, if one s objective is learn to do applied research in industry or government, one may wish to also consider agricultural economics and forest economics programs.
The following webpage provides links to many Ph. Programs in economics and agricultural economics in American and Canadian Universities: Agricultural economics programs tend to be very applied as many graduates enter industry and governmental positions that require applied research skills. S At the graduate level, agricultural economics departments typically require some rigorous mathematical study of economics. They, however, tend to have a much greater focus on the application of economic principles with less focus on the development of theoretical models.
Agricultural economics departments frequently offer master s degrees as a separate program that is a prerequisite for the Ph. Master s programs tend to be very applied and often are used for career development in economics outside of academe. After the first year, agricultural economics programs tend to be far more applied in their focus, as student often work on funded research projects in their studies. There are many agricultural economics programs offered in the U. They, however, are far less common than economics programs.
The following webpage provides links to several agricultural and applied economics programs. The address is The 3rd edition of the popular Opiskelemaan Yhdysvaltoihin guide is now available. The guide is part of a series of guides in Finnish on study abroad opportunities and is edited by the Fulbright Center. Opiskelemaan Yhdysvaltoihin guide is a comprehensive guide about American higher education opportunities.
It includes information about study opportunities, cost of study and funding, admission process, and standardized testing. The guide includes practical tips and advice for those who are planning to study in the United States. It is also a useful reference tool for professionals who cooperate with American institutions.
The guide is available on a pdf-format on the Fulbright Center web site. It is also available at the Fulbright Center office and can be ordered by sending a selfaddressed C4 envelope together with a 1,30 stamp to the Fulbright Center. Forestry and Natural Resources Economics Natural resource and forestry departments at some schools maintain programs in the study of economics of forestry and natural resources. Some of the best programs are in a Department of Forestry rather than a Department of Forest Economics. These programs should not be overlooked. As with agricultural economics programs, forest economics students often fund their studies by working on funded research programs.
The Society of American Foresters webpage provides several links to forestry schools.

Approximately 30 Americans annually are offered the opportunity to study, teach, or pursue research in Finland on a Fulbright grant. Students Fulbright student grants to Finland are available to American Ph. Academically talented graduating seniors may also apply before having the degree in hand.
The length of the grant is 9 months. The award provides a monthly stipend of euros, a travel allowance, and free accident and sickness insurance. In the United States the Fulbright U. Student Program is administered by the Institute of International Education IIE , which oversees the application process and pre-screens applicants. The application period begins in May and ends mid-october each year. Application forms, instructions for applying, and additional information are available from Institute of International Education Scholars and Professionals The traditional Fulbright U.
Scholar Program offers grants for lecturing and research to American scholars and professionals. Most of the scholar awards to Finland are based on requests from Finnish universities and polytechnics, where a specialist in a given field is sought for a particular assignment. The Any Field grants offer opportunities for scholars who propose their own projects and who have received an invitation from a Finnish institution. Most of the scholar grants are awarded for one semester months , but some awards are also available for a full academic year. The Fulbright Center encourages both faculty members and professionals outside academe to apply for a Fulbright grant to Finland.
The Mid-Career Professional Development Grant, in particular, is intended for professionals in all fields, who wish to take a sabbatical leave of months from normal work duties to pursue a research project, further education or training in Finland. The Council for International Exchange of Scholars CIES publishes an annual awards catalogue with detailed information on Fulbright grants available to scholars and professionals.
The awards catalogue, application forms and instructions are available from: The New Century Scholar Program brings together top academics and professionals from around the world to collaborate for a year on a topic of global significance. For , the research theme is Addressing Sectarian, Ethnic and Cultural Conflict within and across National Borders, and the topic of the first program year in was Challenges of Health in a Borderless World.
NCS Fellows will pursue research activities related to the NCS research theme throughout the program year and maintain contact with one another as a means to expanding their own research directions and accomplishing NCS group objectives. There are also several orientations and meetings throughout the year for the NCS Fellows. An important part of the program is a month international research visit. American candidates proposing to spend the international research visit in Finland should arrange their own affiliations with Finnish host institutions.
More information on the NCS program is available at Teachers and Administrators The Fulbright Teacher Exchange provides American 2-year college teachers and teachers of elementary, middle, and high schools the opportunity for direct one-for-one exchange with a colleague in Finland.
The purpose of the program is to broaden the professional knowledge of teachers and to offer participating educational institutions an opportunity for international cooperation. The teachers will teach one another s classes and, in some cases, will live in one another s homes. In the Administrator Exchange Program American elementary and secondary school administrators, two-year college administrators, and administrators at teacher training institutions have an opportunity to work together with a Finnish administrator as a team, shadowing and sharing administrative duties.
The program provides for reciprocal visits of six weeks to each administrator s home institution. Exchanges may be in the areas of personnel administration, curriculum development, student affairs, or educational policy and methodology. Application deadline for both the Fulbright Teacher and the Administrator Exchange programs is in mid-october.
The AIA program provides small institutional grants to Fulbright alumni to develop innovative projects that will foster institutionally supported linkages and sustainable, mutually beneficial relationships between the Fulbright Scholar s home and official host institutions.

A photo exhibition was opened at the Fulbright Center in early March.
The images in the exhibition are a personal retrospective of the artist s experiences in Finland, focusing primarily on the northern nature and changing seasons; opening a private window looking out upon the Finnish landscape, both in its flowing expanses and fragile details. The number of the exhibits is not insignificant either. Finland serves as a symbolic marker in time.
