Research profiles

As assistant promotor she is currently involved in research concerning the process and effect evaluation of interactive Personal Health Record (PHR) systems to improve disease management for patients with diabetes, chronic heart failure or COPD. Innovative machine learning techniques will be used to evaluate usage, identify usage patterns and user profiles as a first step towards the development of personalized coaching by data-driven feedback systems.

  • Process and effect evaluation of the web based care platform Mijn GezondheidsPlatform (MGP). PhD project Saskia Akkersdijk (2013-2016) in cooperation with Medicinfo Kenniscentrum.
  • Process and effect evaluation of the web based care platform eVita. PhD project Floor Sieverink (2013-2016).

Within the field of Public Health she is involved in the design of an interactive platform for tailored risk communication to prevent non-alimentary zoonotic disease. By co-creation with end-users and stakeholders a web-based dashboard (eZoon) consisting of a smart adaptive Question & Answer system and elearning games for professionals and the general public will be developed. The eZoon dashboard will increase awareness, self-management via self-learning and user-adaptive communication.
