Working at Eindhoven University of Technology, I specialize in combining machine learning with mechanistic models in Systems Biology.
My main application areas include precision nutrition and lifestyle-associated diseases, such as Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Engineering and a Master’s in Medical Engineering from Eindhoven University of Technology. During my Bachelor’s, I explored many areas of biomedical research and discovered a strong interest in computational biology. For my Master’s, I focused on systems biology for cancer research. I also completed an internship at ENPICOM, where I studied how large language models could be used to improve antibody engineering.
Now, as a PhD-TA candidate, I combine machine learning with mathematical modeling to support new discoveries in systems biology. I also teach a course on systems biology models to Bachelor’s students in Biomedical Engineering and Medical Science and Technology. With skills in machine learning, programming in Python and Julia, and numerical simulations, I am passionate about using technology and science to improve life for people with chronic lifestyle-related diseases.
