Applying Artificial Intelligence in Developing Personalized and Sustainable Healthcare for Spinal Disorders (AID-Spine, part I)
We will use machine learning methods on large survey and health register data in order to identify people with different treatment trajectories and health outcomes after surgical and/or conservative treatment for spinal disorders.
-
Co-occurrent pain and psychological distress: From adolescence to adulthood
The project will use population-based data from four cross-sectional databases (SHoT, Young-HUNT1, Young-HUNT3 and Young-HUNT4) linked with prospectively collected data from national administrative and health registries.

MI-NAV
Can motivational interviewing facilitate return-to-work in sicklisted people with musculoskeletal disorders?
-
MUSKHEL - Musculoskeletal Health Literacy in Adolescents
The MUSKHEL project will respond to the need of increased knowledge of musculoskeletal health literacy in adolescents.
-
Needs and expectations among individuals, health personnel, and stakeholders involved in occupation and health (Bridgebuilder project)
Impaired musculoskeletal health is known to negatively impact work productivity and life quality. This project acts as a bridge between academic research and users’ needs in the society.
