My earliest interest in research was orthostatic hypotension in the field of geriatrics. Later on, after specializing in psychiatry, my research topics have been depression, psychosomatics and early psychosis.
I teach medical students and residents in psychiatry. During the last years, my main interest in teaching has been psychotherapy. I am the leader of the psychotherapy training for residents in psychiatry and adolescent psychiatry at the university of Turku.
