My research field is university pedagogy, especially the teaching of university physics. I am involved in the Physics Education Research and Physics Teacher Education Research Group, and I am particularly fascinated by the development of models for physics teaching and experimental physics teaching.
I have been involved in the University of Jyväskylä's renewable energy research and education program from 2003 to 2014, with special fields in technical thermodynamics and renewable energy production, and in the research group on disordered matter and nonlinear physics from 1997 to 2003. The topic of my article-based doctoral dissertation (2003), which belongs to the field of disordered materials, is the kinetic roughening of interfaces in disordered matter.
