Over time, my research has increasingly focused on health and health economic issues, and I am part of the university’s research environment Cyphisco. However, my doctoral dissertation addressed a completely different area, namely exchange rates. In the dissertation, I used temporary equilibrium models and overlapping generations models to analyze the properties and dynamics of exchange rates, both over time and under uncertainty.

In research related to health and health economics, I participate in several projects, primarily in two areas: children’s and adolescents’ health and cancer care. The projects concerning children and adolescents focus on sleep, mental health, and existential loneliness. The projects within cancer care deal with rehabilitation, advanced palliative care, and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM).

In health economics, it is often important to measure the degree of health changes associated with various interventions. Quality-assured measurement of health effects has become a major focus in my research, primarily using psychometric and metrological methods, particularly Rasch Measurement Theory (RMT).

Part of my research time has been devoted to examining various aspects of teaching and studies. Specifically, I have been interested in factors that affect the efficiency of teaching and studies. For these purposes, I have used both parametric (stochastic frontier analysis) and non-parametric methods (data envelopment analysis).
