Independently verified: current affiliation, public profile and published contact confirmed from the open record.

Ilona Riipinen

Ilona Riipinen

Professor, Department of Environmental Science

Riipinen studies how atmospheric aerosol particles form, grow and seed clouds, work central to reducing uncertainty in climate projections. A leader within the Bolin Centre for Climate Research and founding editorial voice of ACS ES&T Air, she collaborates with CERN's CLOUD experiment and measurement teams across Europe and North America.

Alasdair Skelton

Alasdair Skelton

Professor of Geochemistry and Petrology, Department of Geological Sciences

Skelton, co-founder and former director of the Bolin Centre for Climate Research, studies chemical signals in groundwater that precede earthquakes, monitoring Icelandic boreholes with Nordic collaborators for over two decades. His team's forecasting framework, published in 2024, points towards practical early warning tools for seismically active regions worldwide.

Sara Strandberg

Sara Strandberg

Professor, Department of Physics

Strandberg is an experimental particle physicist and Wallenberg Academy Fellow working on the ATLAS experiment at CERN's Large Hadron Collider. Her group probes the Higgs boson's couplings and searches for supersymmetric particles, contributing Stockholm expertise to one of the largest scientific collaborations ever assembled, with several thousand physicists worldwide.
