Anna-Maiju Leinonen
My research focuses on the health and well-being effects of physical activity and sedentary behaviour, as well as the costs of physical inactivity. My particular expertise lies in the measurement of movement behaviours and the use of accelerometer data in population-based research. I am also interested in promoting physical activity and functional capacity across the life course.

Research interests

  • Measurement of physical activity and sedentary behaviour
  • Promoting an active lifestyle
  • Economic impacts of physical activity
