My research is primarily focused on assessing how accessibility to health related serivces vary spatially for different socioeconomic and demographic groups. By using a GIS to carry out spatial analysis, I analyze how accessibility vary over space, and time, for the population in Sweden. My research is also focused on  how the organization of health care facilities and planning of the health care system affect urban and rural populations differently, and how policy can be formulated to make access to health more equitable.
