Biography

I am a Consultant Neurosurgeon at Turku University Hospital and Adjunct Professor of Neurosurgery at University of Turku and Adjunct Professor of Neurotraumatology at University of Helsinki, Finland.

I work as the Head of Department of Dept. of Neurosurgery (osastonylilääkäri) and the Head of Dept. of Brain Trauma and Rehabilitation (vastuualuejohtaja) and as the Physician-in-Charge for neurosurgical intensive care and traumatic brain injury management at Turku University Hospital. 

I am the leader of biochemical arm of Traumatic Brain Injury Group of University of Turku, and Turku University Hospital, and the leader of Neurosurgical Implant Group, University of Turku. During 2019-2022, I am working as a clinical researcher at Academy of Finland.
