Tatu Lajunen ([email protected])

Tatu got his PhD in Pharmacy from University of Helsinki in 2016. He works on drug delivery to challenging target sites, for example posterior segment of the eye, tumors and central nervous system. Tatu has diverse international research background through working in Santen Pharmaceuticals in Japan as well as Kyoto University and Tokyo University of Pharmacy & Life Sciences. The current focus of his research is the utilization of nanoparticle drug delivery systems for targeted treatment of diseases with biomacromolecules. With the help of his international network of collaborators, the work continues to progress the field towards better medications. Tatu received in 2025 a Title of Docent in Pharmaceutical Nanotechnology in UEF.

In my doctoral research I studied credibility assessment practices of religion-based asylum claims in the Baltic States. Currently, I work in a pilot project exploring different ways of staying in border areas despite the security challenges.

Teemu Oivo ([email protected])

Teemu Oivo is a postdoctoral researcher at the Karelian Institute studying digital borders. Additionally, Oivo is part of the Academy of Finland-funded project “Transnational Death: Practices of death and remembrance in the transnational everyday on the Finnish-Russian border” and the Kone Foundation funded-project “Flowision”. In Fall 2023, Oivo is doing a research exchange at the Université Grenoble Alpes as part of the “Transnational Death” -project.

Oivo is specialized in critical discourse analysis and media research, using varieties of platforms, most notably in-depth analysis of online group communications. Oivo’s doctoral dissertation examines how “Russianness” was produced in Finnish-Russian transnational media space in the 2010s. Oivo’s recent research project affiliations include “Strategies of Persuasion: Russian Propaganda in the Algorithmic Age”, and “The Ancient Finnish Kings: a computational study of pseudohistory, medievalism and history politics in contemporary Finland and Russia”.

In my doctoral dissertation, I examine the connections between workplace learning, organizational strategy implementation, and psychological safety from a strategy‑as‑practice perspective. In my research strategy is conceptualized as something people do rather than as a formal plan or outcome, hence, strategy implementation is seen an ongoing learning process embedded in everyday work practices, where interaction among organizational actors is central to the enactment of strategy. Psychological safety is examined as a key enabling condition for participation in these strategic practices and for learning through interaction.

In my PhD research, I develop novel numerical methods for the modeling of the aerosol dynamics, which can be described with the General Dynamic Equation of Aerosols (GDE).  Thus far, the Finite Element Method (FEM) and its extension the Petrov-Galerkin Finite Element Method (PGFEM) has been tested for the single component GDE (Published paper I). Next step is to extend the methodology for the multicomponent GDE (MCGDE). Preliminary results are promising. Furthermore, after the accuracy and efficiency of FEM is established, it will be used in estimation of the aerosol process rates from simulated and measured data.

In addition of my research, I have also lectured the introduction course to the mathematics during two semesters (2020-2021).
