I'm a specialist in rheumatology and internal medicine. I am currently vice chair of the Finnish Society for Rheumatology. I am actively involved in developing the Finnish Rheumatology Quality register and have been a member of the register working group since 2021. I am currently mentoring one graduate and two PhD students. |
My research interests focus broadly on inflammatory rheumatic diseases and their genetic, clinical, epidemiological, and health-economical aspects, including clinical application of machine learning models in rheumatology.
I am clinical lecturer in internal medicine. In addition to teaching clinical internal medicine, I am responsible for undergraduate rheumatology teaching.
