Saimme THL:ssä rahoituksen kunnianhimoiseen projektiin: tavoite on rakentaa simulointimalli, jolla voitaisiin arvioida talouspoliitikan vaikutuksia väestön terveyteen.
Nyt haemme hankkeeseen yhdeksi vuodeksi java-osaajaa, joka on kiinnostunut nostamaan politiikan arvioinnin seuraavalle tasolle.
Welcome to join this interesting presentation! Teams link and further information: www.ttts.fi/finhess #healtheconomics
