Research interests

Research activities in my group involve chemists with synthetic and / or computational backgrounds and interests in examining the chemistry of main group systems that behave like d- and f-block metals and their compounds. This includes, for example, stable radicals as building blocks of new molecule-based materials with interesting magnetic properties as well as main group compounds capable of small molecule activation and catalysis. Research in this area is primarily of fundamental importance but the targeted compounds could also offer many benefits over the rare-earth and precious metal-based systems that our technologies currently rely on.

The research group has attracted strong extramural support since its founding in 2008. Individual research projects are / have been funded by the University of Jyväskylä, the European Research Council (ERC-CoG-2017: 772510) the European Commission (H2020-MSCA-IF: 659123), the Academy of Finland (#123107, 136929, 141000, 141560, 216725, 253907, 272900, 282499 and 289173), the Technology Industries of Finland Centennial Foundation, Emil Aaltonen Foundation, the Foundation for Research of Natural Resources in Finland as well as many other private Finnish foundations. Several of the group's alumni have gone on to successful careers in industry or in academia.
