After that I continued working as a postdoc and group leader at TUT. On January 2012 I moved to University of Eastern Finland (UEF) to lead the Aerosol Physics Laboratory. I have a strong background in measurement method development and applications related to atmospheric aerosols. My major research questions are related to the atmospheric aerosols: how they form, what are their properties and what is the role they play in the Earth\u2019s climate through their interactions with water vapour. To study these questions in a comprehensive way I have established a wide international collaborative networks and consistently developed our own research infrastructure at UEF.<\/p>\n<p>Major part of my research is funded by European Research Council (ERC Starting Grant project QAPPA) and Academy of Finland.<\/p>\n<h3>Publications<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2917-5344\">ORCID<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.researcherid.com\/rid\/E-7699-2010\">ResearcherID<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<h2>Contact information:<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Tel<\/strong>: +358 50 3164118<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fax:<\/strong> +358 17 162585<\/p>\n<p><strong>Email:<\/strong> annele.virtanen (at) uef.fi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Huone:<\/strong> Melania 333\/1<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Head of the Aerosol Physics Research Group I received my PhD in Tampere University of Technology (TUT, Department of Physics) 2004.
