Presenting data in visual form can help us notice patterns, aid our understanding of complex ideas and generate new findings.

Visualizing information is effectively used, for example, in presenting genetic information, which has helped researchers to navigate enormous and complex datasets. New tools help genetic researchers to visualize genetic data sets, fueling genetic discoveries. 

The exhibition showcases Aalto University’s data visualization tools developed in collaboration with the University of Helsinki’s FinnGen research project. This is a brand-new way to visualize genetics, and it is breathtakingly beautiful.

The exhibition is open during Oodi’s opening hours.
