From the 1st of August 2021, I start to work full time as a Professor at the Department of Chemistry at NTNU. The position is within equilibrium and non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and was formally announced more than one year ago. There were many excellent applicants, and I feel very proud to end up on the top of the list. I now look forward both to start new collaborations, and to continue the exciting ongoing research in collaboration with SINTEF Energy Research and with centre of Excellence on Porous media research, Porelab, where I will contribute as one of the Principal Investigators.
