I am a Finnish mathematician mainly interested in inverse problems of medical imaging.
I work on reconstruction algorithms for X-ray tomography with few projections
and electrical impedance tomography (EIT). The goal of my scientific work is to design
efficient numerical methods that have sound mathematical basis and solve real-world problems.

I work as professor of Industrial Mathematics at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics of University of Helsinki.
Moreover, I belong to the editorial board of International Journal of Mathematics and Computer Science
and hold the position of senior scientist in Finnish Center of Excellence in Inverse Problems Research.

The center picture above is a reconstruction of electric conductivity from impedance tomography measurements
using the regularized d-bar method (joint with D Isaacson, K Knudsen, M Lassas, J Mueller and J Newell).
The rightmost picture above is a local X-ray tomography image of teeth using wavelet-based Bayesian inversion
(joint with V Kolehmainen and K Niinimaki).
