Last week we watched nervously as seven PhD student finalists from the University of Turku described their work to a lay audience using one slide, no animation in under three minutes in the three-minute thesis (3MT) competition! It was exciting stuff! Omkar from our Centre was selected to the next stage of the SANORD (South African-Nordic) competition! We are very proud of you and wish you all the best for the next round. Watch Omkar’s presentation “Are mitochondria just our powerhouses?” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AtTyboCnLpg
