Field of work

PhD Thesis: «Growth trajectories and risk of underweight in childhood cancer patients and survivors», Supervisor: Fabiën Belle

I am a dietitian with a strong interest in clinical nutrition, preventive medicine, and childhood health. I completed a master's degree in Biostatistics, and I am now pursuing a PhD at the Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine (ISPM) at the University of Bern.

My PhD project focuses on underweight, undernutrition, and growth trajectories in childhood cancer patients and survivors. In addition, I will collaborate with international experts to develop guidelines for the surveillance of underweight in childhood cancer survivors as part of the International Guideline Harmonization Group (IGHG).
