Biomedical Spectroscopy Laboratory

Biomedical Spectroscopy Laboratory (BiomedSpect) is a research group at the University of Eastern Finland (UEF), founded in 2018 as part of the Biophysics of Bone and Cartilage (BBC) group. The BBC is a global leader in cartilage and bone biophysics and engineering, contributing significantly to musculoskeletal disease research for over 20 years. BiomedSpect focuses on advancing non-invasive optical imaging technologies to improve early disease detection, particularly on liver fibrosis and osteoarthritis. Our research integrates hyperspectral imaging (HSI) and spectroscopy to analyze the optical properties of tissues, aiming to develop new diagnostic tools. By correlating optical data with tissue composition, we aim to transform disease diagnostics, making them more accurate and accessible. In collaboration with academic and industry partners, we also utilize machine learning and data analytics to interpret complex imaging data and apply it to clinical diagnostics. As part of the BBC, we are connected to a research community that has expanded its expertise into areas such as biomedical spectroscopy, neuromodulation of muscle activity, and the development of diagnostic technologies for obstructive sleep apnea. The BBC boasts impressive metrics, with over publications and an h-index of 76, reflecting its global impact on biophysics research. Our Mission: We are dedicated to innovating non-invasive imaging methods that can lead to earlier, more accurate diagnoses of diseases, ultimately improving patient outcomes. Our work stands at the intersection of cutting-edge biomedical optics and applied clinical research, aiming to shape the future of diagnostics.

Skene

The Dashboard is Dead. For too long, Product-Led Growth (PLG) meant gluing together a "Frankenstein Stack" of marketing tools—CDPs, email platforms, and clunky overlays that sit on top of your product. They are brittle, they break when you push code, and they create silos between Engineering and Growth. We are killing "The Drop." We are building the Machine. Skene is the first IDE-Native Growth Orchestration engine. We believe that if your growth logic doesn't live in your repository, it doesn't exist. What we do: Instead of a separate dashboard, Skene lives where you work—inside Cursor, VS Code, and your terminal. Running as an MCP Server, Skene reads your codebase, understands your architecture, and auto-generates the "Growth Loops" you need to scale. The Golden Stack: We are optimized for the modern web stack. If you build on Vercel, Supabase, React, and Stripe, Skene gives you superpowers: Analyze: Detect churn risks and missing onboarding steps directly from your code structure. Generate: Create "Code-as-Text" assets (Emails, React Components, Linear Tickets) to fix them. Orchestrate: Self-healing growth loops that evolve with your product. Our Philosophy: Open Source First: Run our analysis locally via uvx. No data lock-in. Code-Native: You own the output. It’s just Markdown and Code. No "Drops": Continuous, real-time lifecycle management. Join the post-dashboard era.

Meaningful Digital Evolution Mde

The Meaningful Digital Evolution (MDE) research project investigates how digital transformation affects meaningfulness of work and productivity in the technology sector. We aim to develop AI-based tools to streamline work processes and reduce work fragmentation and technostress, making work more meaningful and productive. In prior research, the burden of dealing with the consequences of digital transformation has often been placed on the individual. Our view is that digital transformation is a systemic challenge which requires system-level solutions. Our project contributes to the European Industry 5.0 initiative; empowering workers, addressing the evolving skills and training needs of employees, and increasing the competitiveness of European industry. Our research is funded by Business Finland.

Industrial Chemistry And Reaction Engineering At Åbo Akademi University

We focus on catalysis, chemical kinetics and chemical reactor technology. The key domain in our research is process intensification through the development of new catalysts and new chemical reactors and the use of non-conventional forms of energy, such as acoustic and microwave irradiation. Micro- and millistructured reactors are developed for energy-efficient, for more enhanced and more selective chemical processes. New structured catalysts, such as fibres, monoliths and solid foam structures are utilized for process intensification. The trend of today is to shift from batch processes to continuous reactor technology: we are among the global pioneers in this domain. The use and valorization of molecules from biomass is a core area in our research, particularly hydrogenation, oxidation, epoxidation and isomerization of multifunctional molecules. The reaction products are used as fine and specialty chemicals, components in green fuels as well as ingredients in pharmaceutical and alimentary products. In our strongly multi-disciplinary approach, we successfully combine the experimental activities with the most advanced mathematical modelling of chemical kinetics, transport phenomena and flow pattern in multiphase systems. The chemical spectrum of our research is broad, but still strongly focused: from reaction mechanism to reactor design, from green chemistry to green process technology. Education and research are strongly connected in our daily activities. We provide courses at the bachelor (TkK) and master (DI) levels in chemical reaction engineering – homogeneous reactors, industrial reactors, advanced reactor systems, heterogeneous catalysis, chemical process and product technology as well as courses at the postgradual level on reaction kinetics and computer-aided chemical reaction engineering. The environment in the Laboratory is strongly international – around 15 languages are spoken among the team members from different continents.
