From giant galaxies to nanoparticles… That has been my journey in science. After finishing my Bachelor of Physics, which specifically deepened my knowledge in Cosmology and Astrophysics, my enthusiasm in science brought me to Tampere University (TAU) for a master’s degree in Nanotechnology. My adventure in science did not end there as I got the opportunity to do my current doctoral studies on 3D printing of ceramic nanomaterials. My doctoral thesis’s topic is about the fabrication of porous ceramic structures via stereolithography to be used as catalytic converters.
Being a member of the Ceramic Materials Group at TAU since 2015 has brought me an enormous interest in ceramic materials and processing of them. I enjoy the most teamwork and collaborating with others but also effectively self-managing during independent projects. My expertise includes implementation of various research tools, project design and management, data analysis and interpretation, writing academic applications and manuscripts, collaborating with academic and industrial partners, and presenting in conferences and seminars. Additionally, I am teaching master and PhD students a course called ‘Processing of advanced ceramics’.
Teaching has been always my dream and I would like to be a professional university-level lecturer during my adventure in academy. That is why I am currently doing pedagogical studies to acquire high pedagogic quality
of teaching. I know my journey in science is long and I am excited to see what more this adventure will bring for me.

Turning Waste into Raw Materials for the Ceramic Industry.
Waste materials were once seen as a burden but are increasingly being redefined as valuable resources for ceramic production. Through advances in materials engineering, waste can be used as secondary raw materials in the ceramic industry. This shift enables more circular and resource-efficient ceramic manufacturing systems.

Implementing 3D-Printed Technical Ceramics in Regulated Medical Fields.
Bringing a new manufacturing technology into medicine requires far more than producing an impressive component. In highly regulated fields, innovation must be translated into repeatable processes, documented quality, reliable materials and, ultimately, evidence of clinical value. Lithoz has spent more than a decade building this bridge for Lithography-based Ceramic Manufacturing (LCM).
