I work as Assistant Professor in Medical Statistics at the Mathematical Institute of Leiden University (Leiden, The Netherlands). I am also researcher at the Department of Biomedical Data Sciences at the Leiden University Medical Center and member of the Data Analysis and Survival for Personalised Oncology group.

My research follows a dual trajectory: I develop innovative methodologies with a solid mathematical foundation and apply them to address specific clinical questions, particularly in the field of paediatric cancer treatment.
My methodological focus involves survival analysis, causal inference, and time-varying processes to develop novel statistical methodologies for studying the effectiveness of received therapeutic regimens in fighting against cancer in presence of latent accumulation of chemotherapy-induced toxicity.

I am Principal Investigator of the INDICATES project funded by KWF for the development of a new clinical prediction tool for INDIvidualized loCAl Therapy for Ewing Sarcoma, and Co-investigator of the PACT-ES project funded by KiKa for the study of a novel Personalised Approach to Chemotherapy Treatment for Ewing Sarcoma.
