My research focuses on the interconnections between health, labour markets, and well-being, with particular emphasis on health economics and labour economics. I primarily use Finnish administrative register data and quasi-experimental research designs to investigate these relationships.
My research has been published in leading international journals, including the American Journal of Health Economics, ILR Review, Journal of Applied Econometrics, Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization, Journal of Health Economics, Journal of Human Capital, Journal of Human Resources, Journal of the European Economic Association, and Journal of the Royal Statistical Society: Series A.
I am Professor of Health Economics at the Jyväskylä University School of Business and Economics (JSBE) and a Research Fellow at IZA. I received my PhD from the Helsinki School of Economics in 2003.
My research aims to advance our understanding of how health affects economic outcomes and individual well-being, providing evidence to inform public policy.
