Nelli Piattoeva was appointed Associate Professor at the New Social Research programme at the University of Tampere. Upon return from her one-year research stay at Humboldt University, Berlin, Nelli joins the multidisciplinary New Social Research (NSR) programme that brings together key actors from several 
schools and disciplines, integrating both new recruits and already existing key staff working towards more integrated research. NSR combines analytical and descriptive, as well as solution-oriented and constructive research approaches in order to meet the complex challenges of today’s global world. Nelli’s contribution to NSR research will centre on the themes of “Power, authority and governance” and “Global travel of ideas”.
