What makes one always come back to Jyväskylä? In this episode, our host Irfan sits down with his colleague Lukas Fußangel, who is a former exchange student of the University of Jyväskylä. Lukas shares in what ways JYU affected his academic career, how he forged meaningful connections during his exchange semester as well as how he became part of an orchestra in Jyväskylä. We also hear about the Jyväskylä Summer School: Jyväskylä is the STEM capital of Finland during the summer months with a tradition spanning over three decades! Finally, Lukas shares some advice for incoming exchange students, and we also discover what is the best dessert you can find in the student restaurants (at least according to Lukas and Irfan). We hope you will enjoy (the episode and the chocolate mousse)!

In this episode of the JYU for YOU podcast, host Irfan interviews Finland’s top young physicist, Henna Kokkonen, who gained international recognition after discovering a new isotope while working on her master’s thesis. Now a successful doctoral researcher at JYU’s Nuclear Spectroscopy Group, Henna’s academic journey began with a love for sports and a curiosity about history, until a passionate physics teacher ignited her interest in physics. Despite some initial concerns, through hard work and dedication, as well as some good friends, Henna managed to find a place for herself. She credits her success to the support from her friends, family, and the Physics Department at JYU. Breaking the physicist stereotype, she balances her research with traveling, playing on a local volleyball team, Vehniän Wartti, and socializing. Henna represents the new generation of Finnish researchers, highlighted by her invitation to Linnan juhlat, Finland’s Independence Day reception organized by the President of the Republic, in December 2023.
