Personal profile
Research
I am researching occupational and environmental medicine with a particular focus on chemical exposures and acute health effects. Using quantitative measurements, I aim to generate knowledge to establish evidence-based guidelines for safe work. My research contributes to decision-makers establishing evidence-based exposure limits and employers initiating measures to prevent work-related diseases.
Profile
As a postdoc, I conduct research in occupational and environmental medicine. I am particularly interested in the associations between chemical exposures and acute health effects. I have a degree in occupational epidemiology and public health.
Job responsibilities
My primary responsibility is to investigate the association between chemical exposures and acute health effects. I lead research projects, supervise and teach students, prepare grant applications, manage funding, and communicate my research findings.
