On these pages you can find some information about me and a collection of some of the work I have done.
I am an Associate Professor at Hanken School of Economics, Helsinki Finland. I have been researching the changing landscape towards openness in scholarly publishing by studying combinations of bibliometrics, web metrics, business models, science policy, and author behavior since 2009. I defended my PhD thesis on the subject of Open Access journal publishing in 2014. Please see the publications section of my webpage if you are interested in the research I´ve been doing.
In addition to teaching, supervision, and research I see societal impact as very important part of my work, thus I frequently give public talks and am involved in various national and international groups. I have been involved in preparing reports for the European Commission, the European Research Council Executive Agency (ERCEA), Harvard Library Office of Scholarly Communication, the Ministry of Education and Culture in Finland, the Finnish Association of Scholarly Publishers, and the Nordic Publications Committee for Humanities and Social Science Periodicals (NOP-HS).
Regarding my current societal engagements I am the chair of the Finnish Association for Scholarly Publishing, a member of the steering group of the FinELib library consortium, a member of the advisory board for intellectual property appointed by the Ministry of Education and Culture. I am also a panel member of the Finnish Publication Forum , which is a rating and classification system supporting the assessment of research outputs on a large scale.
At Hanken School of Economics I am currently the head of subject for Information Systems Science, a member of the board for Research and University Services, member of the Department Council for the Department of Management and Organisation, chair for the Research Ethics Committee, and deputy member of the Examination Board.
I am a member of the editorial board of Helsinki University Press. I am also on the advisory board of the blog Elephant in the Lab.
