The tool gathers key information about a house and identifies questions relevant to that specific buildings energy solutions. As a result, both the homeowner and the energy advisor can focus on finding solutions rather than spending time collecting background information during the consultation.Wed, 30 Sep 2026 04:45:00 +000074437 https://tuni.fi/en/tau/news-and-events/interpreters-witness-richness-human-life-says-anu-viljanmaaAnu Viljanmaa discovered the profession of interpreting by chance, and it turned out to be the perfect fit for her. Today, she trains the next generation of interpreters, helping them to develop skills such as professional listening.

His specific interests are hereditary cancers and Lynch syndrome, but he is also looking to the future. How can Finland strengthen its expertise in cancer surgery, and how could we identify situations where less treatment may actually be better than more?Mon, 28 Sep 2026 07:05:00 +000074347 https://tuni.fi/en/tau/news-and-events/pioneering-hydrogen-technology-global-potentialA few years ago, researchers in renewable energy technologies at Tampere University achieved a major technological breakthrough in nextgeneration solid oxide fuel cells. Their innovation, a 3Dprinted reversible fuel cell, can operate either as a fuel cell or as an electrolyser. This means that the same cell can produce electricity from hydrogen and hydrogen from electricity. SMART+IONS, a university spinoff founded in 2025, is now commercialising this technology.Wed, 23 Sep 2026 11:07:08 +000074334 https://tuni.fi/en/tau/news-and-events/information-studies-could-be-forefront-ai-transformation-paavo-arvola-examinesPaavo Arvola has yet to come across a field that cannot be combined with information studies. In his current teaching and research, many of the longstanding questions of information studies, including those related to information retrieval, relevance and information interaction, are being reexamined in the age of AI.Fri, 18 Sep 2026 13:38:14 +000074201 https://tuni.fi/en/tau/news-and-events/digital-care-should-sustain-human-interaction-not-reduce-it-one-wayDigital healthcare services should be designed as platforms where patients and healthcare professionals interact, rather than merely as channels for the exchange of information. A policy recommendation by the PROSHADE research consortium highlights the importance of preserving interaction within digital healthcare services.Fri, 18 Sep 2026 12:34:32 +000074185 https://tuni.fi/en/tamk/news-and-events/doctoral-researcher-arto-koskinen-people-are-ones-who-live-and-experience-andWhen screenwriting students try to be original by imitating films they have seen, the result often feels hollow. Arto Koskinen, Senior Lecturer in Screenwriting and Directing at Tampere University of Applied Sciences and a film director himself, explores in his doctoral research how students own experiences and strong emotional traces can be turned into fuel for storytelling. He is also interested in how artificial intelligence can best support the creative process as a sparring partner.Tue, 08 Sep 2026 12:28:08 +000073972 https://tuni.fi/en/tau/news-and-events/capital-celiac-disease-promotes-understanding-through-sustainedCeliac disease is a complex autoimmune condition that requires lifelong dietary management, and researchers continue to seek more effective and personalised treatment options. Research on the disease has a long history at Tampere University, helping to establish it as one of the world's leading centers in the field. A key factor behind this success is a unique research environment where celiac disease is examined from an exceptionally wide range of perspectives.Wed, 16 Sep 2026 06:45:31 +000074088 https://tuni.fi/en/tau/news-and-events/bridging-waves-and-circuits-dr-han-zhou-energy-efficient-ai-driven-radioAt Tampere University, Assistant Professor Han Zhou is developing energyefficient RF integrated circuits and AIassisted design methods that address the growing challenges of 6G communications, millimeterwave technologies, and quantum computing, helping pave the way for faster, more sustainable, and more intelligent hardware systems.Thu, 17 Sep 2026 06:51:24 +000074217
