Niko Mäkitalo

Who

I am Research Coordinator at the University of Helsinki computer science department. I develop the massive research infrastructure and coordinate the use of research resources, including computing clusters and research laboratories. Presently, my research includes supervising the research activities of an Academy of Finland project where we study novel and beneficial cooperation of autonomous robots. I am also the PI of a Business Finland-funded project where we study the feasibility of ROS2 platform for industrial use. In teaching, I am presently focusing on supervising a Ph.D. student and M.Sc. theses.
