Taija Finni PhD

Prof. Taija Finni completed her doctorate in biomechanics at the University of Jyvaskyla in 2001 and post-doctoral studies at the University of California. Prof Finni’s research ranges from basic neuromuscular function to translational research related to physical activity and sedentary behavior. Regarding physical activity field she has studied daily EMG activity patterns in antigravity muscles that have the potential to short-circuit the detrimental physiological processes of sedentary time and result in better cardio-metabolic risk profile.
