My academic drive is to connect practical
problems in healthcare practices to fundamental challenges in data science and
to subsequently address both simultaneously. This is in essence my Translational
Data Science (TDS) research theme, which bridges the best of both worlds.
Pasteur's Quadrant in Figure 1 visualises my drive to achieve a better
fundamental understanding of the world around us by being societally
inspired, demand-driven and solution-oriented.
In 2020 I was appointed Full Professor of Advanced Data Science in
Population Health at both the Department of Public Health & Primary Care
(PHEG) of the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) and the Leiden Institute
of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) at the Faculty of Science (FWN) of Leiden
University (ULEI) to further pursue my vision of simultaneously translating
novel data techniques to health innovations and implementing new insights from
these novel applications into daily healthcare practices. On 1 April 2022 I delivered
my inaugural lecture titled Translational Data Science in Population Health,
in which I introduced TDS as an independent discipline embedded within the
Dutch scientific landscape.
At the Health Campus The Hague I have started the TDS Lab. My strategic research
objective is to establish an authoritative and open national infrastructure
for Dutch health research, education and care to accelerate innovation and to democratise
data science technologies through especially natural language processing and
automated machine learning technologies. My research theme Translational
Data Science in Population Health has three complementary research lines
which together address the continuous knowledge discovery process as
operationalised by the cross-industry standard process for data science
(CRISP-DM) as shown in the figure below:
Figure 1: Translational data science in Pasteur's Quadrant (on the left) combines basic data science understanding with applied data science use considerations. My Top-10 output items encompass the entire data science process (on the right).
Firstly, the Data Engineering research line investigates
the further consolidation, standardisation and enrichment of the Extramural
LUMC Academic Network (ELAN) data infrastructure which links structured
medical, health, social domain, and socio-economic data of 1M+ inhabitants,
extending my "FAIR Data in context ArchiTEcture" project [FeDerATE (UU/ITS) 200K]. I
explore federated machine learning (FML) to enrich ELAN with inter-organisational
linking of unstructured and multimodal data to further my "Computing Visits
Data" programme [COVIDA (EWUU) 250K] [out #3]. I develop natural language
processing (NLP) techniques for Dutch medical texts to extract diagnosis and
treatment information from clinical notes, and mental health language markers
from patient narratives [out #4]. I design clinical decision support
systems (CDSS) that integrate guidelines and taxonomies to bootstrap machine
learning (ML) innovations, e.g. the STRIP Assistant for optimising
medication reviews in polypharmacy patients [out #8].
Secondly, the Data Analytics research line employs NLP and
ML techniques for their suitability to answer translational research questions.
I democratise data science by utilising automated machine
learning (AutoML) technology [out #5], synthetic data generation
[INSAFEDARE (HE) 570K; SENSYN (NWO) 50K] and unsupervised topic discovery
[SAF21 (H2020) 250K]. In my "Psychiatry Research Analytics InfraStructure" project
[PRAISE (UMCU/Psychiatry) 200K] on clinical NLP we report on a Deep
Learning-based prediction model for assessing inpatient violence risk using clinical
notes [out #6]. Recently, we introduced the
first-ever gender bias exploration and mitigation in a ML model trained on real
clinical psychiatry data [out #7].
Finally, the e-Health Implementation research line designs
and implements data science interventions as e-health solutions in the The
Hague region. In early BeHapp work I supervised the development of a sociability
score metric to continuously monitor psychiatric patients [out #2]. In three Randomised Controlled
Trials in the Netherlands, Switzerland, Ireland and Belgium, I led the STRIP
Assistant work packages as the intervention instrument [OPERAM (H2020) 250K;
STRIMP (ZonMW) 110K; OPTICA (SNF) 25K] [out #8]. Through the GEIGER and SMESEC projects
[(H2020) 300K; (H2020) 280K] we established a sustainable ecosystem with integrated training, software tooling
and user community for digitally-dependent professionals [out #9]. Core Life Analytics BV received
1M+ venture capital to commercialise our big data analytics research [CESCA (UMCU/CSC) 100K].
In recent years I have become increasingly more visible internationally
as a leader in health data science through editorships at the journals on
Healthcare Analytics (Elsevier), Digital Public Health (Frontiers),
Semantic Web & Information Systems (IGI), and Computer Information Systems
(T&F), next to various programme committee memberships of leading
conferences such as AIME, ICIS, ECIS and WWW.
Until 2020 I worked as an assistant/associate
professor in the Information Systems and NLP research groups at Utrecht
University's Computer Science department, where I developed my Applied Data
Science (ADS) research theme. In 2015 I launched the ADS Lab with a
specific focus on healthcare innovations. I authoritatively defined ADS as an
independent research discipline [out #1]. My current TDS
research theme can be considered a deeper and theoretically grounded
improvement over ADS. Until 2007 I worked as a PhD
researcher in language data science at the University of Amsterdam (UvA). I
introduced a novel association rule mining technique, received an Association
for Literary and Linguistic Computing (ACLC) bursary award in 2005, and was an
invited researcher at the Università di Trieste. Before 2003 I worked in
industry for ten years as an NLP/Big Data software engineer at ZyLAB Europe and
the Dutch Royal Navy, among others.
Leadership
Between 2013-2023 I participated in
leadership programmes at Utrecht University and Leiden University to further
develop my leadership capabilities. In 2014 I completed the Educational
Leadership programme, while leading the Information Science CUrriculum
REvision (CURE) as Education Manager. During 2015-2016 I contributed to the university-wide data science strategy, designed and
led the ADS postgraduate programme, and co-designed and managed the ADS
master's profile for several years. In 2017 I was awarded the Senior Teaching Qualification. In 2022 I proposed the data science specialisation in LUMC's Population Health Management programme.
In 2018 during the Academic
Leadership programme, my colleagues characterised me as being creative,
positive, witty, dauntless, and motivating. Between 2017-2020 I represented UU
in the Data Science Platform Netherlands (DSPN). I was the data science expert in the New Science Agenda (NWA) Taskforce on
Prevention [out #10]. In the "NWO Round Table Session on
Health", I urged to reboot Dutch health infrastructure. In 2019 I was awarded the Senior Research Qualification and Ius
Promovendi after completing the Research Leadership programme.
Currently, 10 PhD students have
completed their dissertations and are furthering their careers as assistant
professor, lecturer, postdoc, data scientist, or data manager in academia or
industry. My TDS Lab currently consists of 1 assistant professor, 2 postdocs, 6
fulltime PhD students and 4 external parttime PhD students. In 2023 I completed
the LUMC Leadership for Higher Management programme to revisit my
leadership vision and capabilities.
Over the years a hybrid
Coaching/Leading-by-Example leadership style crystallised in which I
empower my Lab members through continuous motivational support and creativity
stimulation through blue-sky thinking, always ensuring their perceived research
ownership. The hybrid TDS Lab has been
meeting monthly since 2016 to catch up socially and academically, next to
optional participation in UL's SIG Health Data Science seminars, which I
co-lead. We also organise both periodic and ad-hoc individual meetings.
Additionally, I prioritise timely written feedback. Finally, I am proud to
observe that longlasting friendships have developed in my Lab.

This section lists my curriculum development activities in information science and data science,
as well as individual course development & teaching work, complemented with a selection of associated student evaluation reports.
- Designed: Specialisation Data Science (2022): Population Health Management (LUMC)
-
The TDS Lab designed a second year specialisation track in the Population Health Management (PHM) MSc curriculum, by taking a novel low-code approach to maximally and reliably facilitate employing state-of-the-art data science solutions for students without a computer science background. However, this track could not be implemented.
- Co-designed: Master's profile ADS (2016-2020): Applied Data Science (UU)
-
I have co-created and coordinated the master's profile Applied Data Science at UU's Graduate School of Natural Sciences (GSNS) and Graduate School of Life Sciences (GSLS). Together with a UU-wide ADS working group we defined the learning objectives and the curriculum content of 30 ECTS for students from GSNS and GSLS backgrounds. The ADS master's profile comprises two mandatory multidisciplinary courses (15 EC) complemented with either a research project (15 EC) OR a selection of 2 elective courses (15 EC) from the elective courses table listed under B2. The illustration below visualises the Master's profile Applied Data Science.
I concluded the specification process by writing the official Education and Exam Regulations (OER) annex 2016-2017 (Applied Data Science Profile, pp.69-71).
- Co-designed: Internal certification PADS (2016-2020): Master Applied Data Science Postgraduate (UMCU)
-
I have coauthored the UU-internal certification proposal for a 90 ECTS, post-graduate MSc programme Applied Data Science for Health, with the Health Sciences CROHO label 75054, hosted by GSLS, which subsequently launched in September 2017. Its unique selling points are fourfold. First, this is the first postgraduate MSc in the Netherlands that does not focus on business analytics, but on the application of data science in the field of health. Second, its multidisciplinary character connects Statistics and Informatics perspectives onto Applied Data Science on par. Third, it's embedded in the new UU focus area Applied Data Science and its active data science community. Fourth, it directly leverages top research in UU Faculties of Science, Social and Behavioral Sciences, and Medicine.
I have been both ADS master's profile coordinator and ADS MSc postgraduate programme coordinator from the start of these programmes.
- Designed: CUrriculum REvision: CURE (2013-2015): Bachelor Information Science (UU)
-
I have developed and supervised the major CUrriculum REvision (CURE) of the Information Science bachelor programme at Utrecht University. Its fourfold aims were to improve its ranking in the yearly NSE student evaluations, to follow up on the accreditation committee's recommendations, to better accommodate the many recent staff changes, and to strategically align the programme with faculty, university, national and European research agendas. At its core are three newly defined study paths which closely match the four secondary Dutch school profiles by design.
Existing courses were either recategorised, repartitioned, upgraded or removed, and new courses are being developed to help implement the new strategic focus, and to better connect the curriculum with current research. This was partly carried out in four staff-based workgroups.
I concluded the revision process by rewriting the official Education and Exam Regulations (OER) text (BIJLAGE D: Informatiekunde, pp.36-40).
