Welcome
Welcome to my website! I am an Associate Professor at the Biomedical Imaging Group Rotterdam of the Erasmus MC - University Medical Center Rotterdam, in the Netherlands, where I am leading a research group on bioimage analysis.
An overview of my academic training and former positions can be found in my brief biography. Contact information can be found in the address section. More information on my activities can be found in the publications, presentations, projects, services, teaching, and software sections.
