Research interests

My research focusses on the bioinformatic analysis of high dimensional data (such as genetic data and imaging data) by applying various statistical and machine learning methods to gain better understanding of complex and multifactorial cardiovascular diseases.

My ongoing projects include identification of new markers for cardiovascular diseases and related traits as well as construction of processing and analysis pipelines for cardiac imaging data from large scale population cohorts.

Besides research activities, I currently serve on the board of Regional Student Group (RSG) Netherlands of the International Society of Computational Biology (ISCB) and on student committee for the organization of the new Summer School ‘Data Science and AI in Health’ offered by the University Medical Centre Groningen (UMCG) in 2021.
