Active lifestyle and prevention

 A healthy lifestyle is important for everyone, but for people with a chronic condition in particular. Healthy lifestyle behaviour can positively impact health related outcomes, wellbeing and quality of life. Also on a societal level, a healthy lifestyle can have huge effects on for example population health and cost-effectiveness. It is however, very difficult to change lifestyle behaviour on the long term and to structurally implement lifestyle approaches in usual care. My research focuses on 1) developing, evaluating and implementing complex lifestyle interventions; 2) delivering such treatments close to patient's homes; 3) using innovative technology to support personalized, efficient and accessible healthcare.
