Presentation
I am a part-time researcher at Kela Research and a coordinator of a research network. My main responsibilities have to do with a research network looking at the effectiveness of occupational healthcare as part of the overall framework of social and health services and at morbidity-related costs in the working-age population. My recent publications have focused on the treatment and rehabilitation of persons applying for disability pension on account of depression.
