Biography
Biography
I am clinical trial methodology researcher and biostatistician working at the Clinical Trial Methodology and Statistical Consultation group within the Department of Data Science and Biostatistics at the Julius Center. My research is focused on developing and implementing innovative (early-phase) adaptive clinical trials within Oncode Accelerator. I am also involved in the design, methodology, and analysis of (oncology) clinical trials.
Before joining the UMC Utrecht, I worked as a statistician at the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek hospital/Netherlands Cancer Institute focusing on design and analysis of oncology clinical trials and I was involved in the Dutch Oncology Research Platform (DORP), an initiative to support investigator initiated clinical research.
I hold a PhD degree in Statistics from Utrecht University (2022) and a MSc degree in Methodology and Statistics for the Behavioural, Biomedical and Social Sciences from Utrecht University (2014).
