Anna LähdeDr. Anna Lähde is an associate professor and leader of the Sustainable Materials Group at Fine Particle and Aerosol Technology Laboratory, Department of Environment and Biological Sciences, University of Eastern Finland. She was the recipient of the restigious Academy of Finland Research Fellowship in the year 2017. Her research is focused on the development of sustainable materials for clean air and water applications. The studies include formation, preparation and characterization of the sustainable nano- and micron-sized materials using sustainable precursors. Her research also includes the analysis and toxicological effects of these materials and airborne particles. In her recent studies, she has focused on the synthesis of novel materials including carbon structures and graphene, superparamagnetic particles (e.g. iron and iron oxides) and catalytic materials (Au, Co) using aerosol processes and induction annealing.
