I am statistician currently working as University Lecturer at the University of Eastern Finland, in Kuopio, Finland. I defended my dissertation at the University of Jyväskylä on 24th February 2018. The name of my dissertation is ‘‘Statistical modelling of selective non-participation in health examination surveys’’. I have experience in particular with Bayesian statistics, analysis of missing data and register data. I am always interested in new challenges related to computational methods. Most of my research involves applications in the health sciences.
