This is the joint website of three ongoing research projects running at Statistics (Department of Mathematics and Statistics) and Economics (Turku School of Economics), headed by Associate Professor Henri Nyberg and Post-doc researcher Kim... The projects, with links to details, are the following: The research started in the spring 2019. The personnel will include post-doc researchers, PhD students and research assistants. The goals of these projects are related to the development of new econometric and statistical methods. The expected methodological development offers new ways of econometric analysis of economic and financial time series.

The expected empirical results shed light on the behavior of macroeconomy and financial markets, valuable for various decision makers and practitioners, and having potential for new consequences to the theoretical economic and financial models. To successfully examine the new ideas, these multidisciplinary projects call for expertise in econometrics, statistics (including time series analysis and machine and statistical learning) and economics/finance. The aim is to address, for their parts, various general gaps in knowledge in the state-of-the-art of econometric research, such as: D.Soc.Sc (Statistics), Professor (Statistics, University of Turku), Head of Statistics Professor in statistics, University of Turku (UTU), with research interests in macro and financial econometrics Head of Statistics and vice head of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics (UTU)

I am an economist with research interests in social inequalities and policy evaluation. My work lies in applied microeconomics, with a particular focus on labour, health, education, and family economics. A key aim of my research is to inform policy interventions that enhance the well-being of vulnerable groups and promote social mobility. My research has been published in the Journal of Development Economics, Labour Economics, and the Journal of Health Economics among other peer-reviewed journals. I received my PhD in economics from the University of York in 2021 and a master’s degree in economics from Victoria University of Wellington in 2015. I am also a research affiliate at EfD-Vietnam, University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City (UEH) and the Norwegian Institute of Public Health (NIPH).

Before joining INVEST in August 2024, I worked as a 3-year postdoctoral fellow at the Centre for Fertility and Health at NIPH, and before that a lecturer in economics at UEH. I was awarded the British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship in 2024. Mental Health Consequences of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine in Finland (with Jouni Helske, Henri Salokangas) My main research activities are related to statistics and specifically in econometrics and time series analysis. See details: UTU Econometrics website. The core courses include 3 time series analysis courses, macroeconometrics and 2 courses on advanced regression analysis and statistical learning

In econometrics field, we have organized a course curriculum for PhD students both in macroeconometrics and financial econometrics, including connections to the national level Finnish Doctoral Programme in Economics and the Graduate of School... The list of 16 courses that I am the responsible person. Courses with * have contact teaching each year or every second year. Due to recent major teaching investments and development during the pandemic, some of the courses are available in a continuous basis (autopilot mode, see details below): Nonlinear Time Series Analysis, 6 ECTS (available also for PhD students in economics and finance) * Multiple Time Series Analysis, 6 ECTS (available also for PhD students in economics and finance) *

The core research areas of the department consist of microeconomic theory and public choice, macroeconomic theory and business cycles, economic policy and public economics, econometrics and forecasting, and financial and housing markets. More information on the research by faculty members can be found in their homepages. In addition, recent research by the faculty can be read at the homepage of Aboa Centre for Economic Research (ACE). ACE is a joint venture with Åbo Akademi and its purpose is to coordinate economics education and research in these two universities.
