The FIREA study

Väitöskirjassani tutkin liikemittarein mitatun paikallaanolon muutoksia eläköidyttäessä ja aktiivisuusintervention jälkeen.

Väitöksen jälkeisellä tutkimusurallani työni on keskittynyt vuorokauden aikaisen fyysisen aktiivisuuden, paikallaanolon ja unen yhtäaikaisiin muutoksiin elämäntapahtumien yhteydessä ja näiden terveysyhteyksiin.

Työskentelen seuraavien käynnissä olevien tutkimushankkeiden parissa:

Vuorokauden aktiivisuuskäyttäytyminen ja kardiometabolinen terveys, MOCA study
Elinympäristön vaikutus vuorokauden aktiivisuuskäyttäytymiseen, E-MOVE study
Etätyön vaikutus fyysiseen aktiivisuuskäyttäytymiseen, WORKDAY study
