Dear
readers,
I started
my academic life in 2004 as a math student in University of Helsinki. I
enjoined my time there, although, one of the best experiences of my “university
years” was the academic year 2006/2007 that I got to spent in Roma Tre University as an Erasmus exchange student. During the later part of my studies,
in 2008, I joined the Atmospheric Remote Sensing group of the Finnish Meteorological Institute first as a summer
trainee, then as a master’s thesis worker, and finally as a research scientist.
I never looked back, and went to do my PhD studies in Lappeenranta University of Technology (2011–2013). This means that I never actually worked for my alma
mater.
Tomorrow
that is about to change, as I will join the Inverse Problems research group in the
Department of Mathematics and Statistics until the end of this year. I am excited
about this opportunity and will try to learn as much as I can during the next
seven months. Research-wise, this is also an excellent opportunity to study the different aspects of the inverse problems research.
Actually, I
will start my first full week as a university employee in the “13th InternationalWorkshop on Greenhouse Gas Measurements from Space.” Finnish Meteorological Institute organizes the meeting, but it will be held in the main building of… University
of Helsinki!
See you
there!
Janne
