  • See editing instructions below:

Submit project manually

  • You can add projects manually. If your project is a UH financial project and is missing from Tuhat, please contact your financial service and ask them to add that project to Tuhat synchronisation (there is  a box for that in Proha).

    • Projects (From project to project) 
      • You can relate one project to one or more projects. 
      • If your public project list seems difficult to read since the new import automatically creates each competitive funding  as a project to you public profile, you can make it better by creating manually a parent project. Create a research project to Tuhat and then link multiple funded projects to that one. Publish that parent project to portal and select it as highlighted content in your person profile.
      • Some major fundings e.g SRC funding (STN in Finnish) decisions are at UH managed as one financial project but in real life there are more projects than just one. Keep the funded project as a parent project and add you real life STN project as a sub-project and publish that one as  highlighted content in your person profile. 
    • Publications
      • Major research funders currently require funded publications to be immediately openly available, saved to repository, including metadata on the publication funder. For University of Helsinki publications this requirement is met if publication pdf is submitted to UH digital repository via Tuhat and there is a relation between project and publication. Then project, related funding information, publication and its pdf are all transferred to UH digital repository and thus fulfill funders' requirements.

Apply for Principal Investigator Status

General information

A principal investigator at the University of Helsinki is typically a person who:

  • Steers and leads research independently.
  • Has completed an applicable doctoral degree and is qualified as an independent researcher.
  • Has access to the necessary resources (facilities, funding, equipment) for independent research.
  • Supervises doctoral students and/or mentors post-doctoral researchers as well as (in applicable research fields) leads a research group, and
  • Is placed on the third or fourth level in the hierarchy of research positions.

The usage of Principal investigator status varies between faculties and independent institutes. Some noted ad advantages are:

  • To target support actions (equipment funding, research program applications) and services (research group web pages)
  • To share information and create networking opportunities internally and internationally
  • To unite all UH affiliated PI's regardless of contract status with the University, e.g. University hospital researchers can apply for PI status at UH.
  • To give research-based structure to UH researcher pool.  

It has been noted that even though the preliminary idea in 2009 was to use same criteria accross faculties and independent institutes, there are discrepancies in the implementations. Currently this concept is most actively used in research group environments.

Add Research Group/Community

Research groups and other research communities can be created to Tuhat as organisations. Research group leader should be a Principal Investigator at the University of Helsinki.
