Kallio has more than 100 scientific publications on electrolytes and electroactive materials for electrochemical energy conversion with 2500+ citations. Additionally, she has one patent on membrane electrolytes for biofuel cells. Tanja Kallio has recently focused on the development of CRM-free and –lean electrocatalysts for membrane fuel cells and electrolysers as well as materials with low noble metal loading for biofuel oxidation. She has expertise in carbon nanomaterial synthesis and their modification for electrochemical energy applications and as well as their chemical and electrochemical characterization. She is leading the Aalto research group Electrochemical Energy Conversion. She has been PI in Finland in five EU projects including on-going CREATE and ELCOREL projects and in five Academy of Finland and six Business Finland funded projects. She is also a member of the Research Council for Natural Sciences and Engineering (NSE) in the Academy of Finland.

PhD in Organic Chemistry from the University of the Basque Country in 2011. During her PhD, she focused on the research of the asymmetric synthesis of organic molecules by the use of both chiral auxiliaries and organocatalysts. During this period, she did a threemonths stay at the University of Oxford working in the developing of new asymmetric synthetic routes. After completing her PhD, she joined GRAPHENEA in September 2011 as Research Scientist. 

She obtained her PhD in Polymer nanocomposites from Manchester Metropolitan University (UK) in 2005. After completing her PhD, she joined AIMPLAS (Plastic Research Institute, Spain) where she has worked as a senior researcher in the field of nanomaterials, polymer nanocomposites and polymer functionalization for more than 10 years. In November 2015 she joined GRAPHENEA as a Scientific Researcher where she is developing new graphene-related materials. She has wide experience as a Project manager in national and EU projects.
