Aleksi Vuorinen
Associate Professor
Theoretical Particle Physics
Helsinki Institute of Physics
Finland
Biography
Aleksi Vuorinen obtained his PhD in theoretical physics from the University of Helsinki in 2004, and thereafter worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Washington (2004-2007), the Technical University of Vienna (2007) as well as CERN, Geneva (2008-2009). From Switzerland I moved to Germany and Bielefeld, where he headed a Sofja Kovalevskaja group until August 2013. In September of the same year,he finally returned to Helsinki to work as a Research Fellow of the Academy of Finland and lead one of the theory projects of the Helsinki Institute of Physics. In September 2017, He was appointed associate professor of theoretical elementary particle physics at the University of Helsinki, and from July 2017 he also hold an ERC Consolidator Grant.
Research Interest
QCD and other quantum field theories at nonzero temperature and density, interiors of compact stars, heavy ion collisions
