I am Executive Director of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research and Professor of Social Statistics at the University of Helsinki.

My training includes a PhD in Demography from the University of Pennsylvania and a PhD in Statistics from the University of Helsinki. Most of my research is on demographic forecasting, population health, fertility trends, and social statistics.
