Laura M. Salonen is a Staff Researcher in the Nanochemistry research group. She is currently the deputy coordinator of the Clean Energy Cluster at INL.

She has vast experience in the synthesis and functionalization of organic and hybrid organic–inorganic nanomaterials and their application for catalysis and water monitoring/treatment. Her main research focuses on covalent organic frameworks (COFs) and COF composites, their synthesis and application. Before joining INL, she spent 2 years at LMU Munich. She received her PhD in 2011 at ETH Zürich.
