SUMMARY:EstWell seminar Vascular Well-being of Renal Replacement Therapy Patients – Can Science Turn Back the Clock?
DESCRIPTION:The seminar will be conducted by Annika Adoberg\, a PhD student and Junior Researcher at the Centre for Biomedical Engineering\, Department of Health Technologies\, TalTech. Annika Adoberg is part of the Centre of Excellence research group on sensor technologies in biomedical engineering. \nChronic kidney disease (CKD) poses a significant challenge not only to physical health but also to social and psychological well-being\, especially in situations where dialysis becomes the only option for survival for the patient. CKD is not limited to the accumulation of uremic toxins and persistent microinflammation\, but also provides a model for studying accelerated aging. Vascular calcification in CKD patients is associated with increased cardiovascular risk and has implications for mental health and cognitive function. Elucidating its mechanisms and translating this knowledge into prevention and treatment strategies is a scientific priority and the creation of innovative solutions will help improve the quality of life of CKD patients and hold promise for promoting the future well-being of patients.

SUMMARY:EstWell visitor seminarEconomic evaluations – in science and practice
DESCRIPTION:Healthcare decisions rely not only on clinical effectiveness but also on whether interventions provide value for the resources they require. Full economic evaluations offer a structured way to guide these choices by weighing both costs and consequences. \n\n\nIn this combined lecture\, we will examine the limits of clinical trial data and highlight the role of decision modelling in filling evidence gaps. We’ll consider when to develop core models versus adapt existing ones\, with practical examples\, and then walk through the typical HTA submission process. Finally\, we will look at the European HTA framework of 2025\, and its implications for research and practice. \n\n\nRiina Hallik (MSc\, MMSc\, RN) is a lecturer and master thesis supervisor in TalTech’s Digital Health curriculum and a member of the ethics committee of the Health Development Institute (TAI). In addition\, co-founder of two Estonian digital health startups and a mentor. She has 12+ years of experience in research projects and was Estonian representative in European Taskforce for Harmonised Evaluation of Digital Medical Devices (DMDs) at EIT Health. \n\n\nRiina will cover the following topics: what economic evaluations are and why they are needed\, the main methods of full economic evaluation\, and the limitations of using clinical trial data \n\n\nChiara Malmberg (MMSc) is a research manager at IHE (The Swedish Institute for Health Economics) and also several years of experience also in Mapi Group and ICON plc. In total she has 10+ years consulting experience in working with health economic studies\, market access and HTAs. She has primarily worked with systematic literature reviews\, health economic modelling as well as submissions to HTA organisations within Europe and Canada. Recent years focus has been on economic modelling including early economic models\, core model development as well as model adaptations focusing on the Nordic countries. \n\n\n\nChiara will cover the purpose and role of decision modelling\, provide an overview of core models versus model adaptation with examples\, explain the typical HTA submission process\, and give an overview of European HTA 2025.

SUMMARY:EstWell seminar Social Health Care Research Group: Community-based research in the field of mental health and well-being
DESCRIPTION:The research seminar introduces the main research directions of the social health care research group and focuses on the role of communities in supporting mental health and well-being. How can we strengthen mental health ecosystems and community responsibility across different life stages and social contexts? The presentations will feature practical examples from ongoing research projects. \nThe seminar will be conducted by members of EstWell’s Social Health Care Research Group:\nMerike Sisask\, Professor of Social Health Care at Tallinn University\nKäthlin Mikiver\, PhD student and junior researcher at Tallinn University\nStella Täht-Vaik\, PhD student and junior researcher at Tallinn University\nRainer Mere\, SEKMO PhD student\, Estonian-Swedish Mental Health and Suicidology Institute (ERSI)
