I am a biostatistician with over 20 years of experience in the development of statistical methods for causal inference. I have spent most of my career at Ghent University, except for postdoctoral training under the guidance of Andrea Rotnitzky and James Robins at the Department of Biostatistics of the Harvard School of Public Health, and a part-time professorship as Professor of Statistical Methodology at the Department of Medical Statistics at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine from 2017 to 2021.

I have had the privilege of serving as Co-Editor of Biometrics, the flagship journal of the International Biometric Society. Furthermore, I have contributed as an Associate Editor for several prestigious journals including the American Journal of Epidemiology, Biometrics, Biostatistics, Epidemiology, Epidemiologic Methods, the Journal of Causal Inference, and the Journal of the Royal Statistical SocietySeries B. I have been awarded an advanced ERC grant by the European Research Council in 2024.
