Bio
Since my medical training, I had a special interest in pediatric infectious diseases and lung health. My initial work as an undergraduate student on the role of respiratory viruses in children with cystic fibrosis resulted in my PhD proposal, which investigated the role of respiratory viruses in respiratory illnesses early in life in a large Dutch pediatric birth cohort. I was awarded a PhD fellowship in the Alexandre Suerman program for my PhD research, which included a 2-year bursary to conduct clinical research leading towards a PhD. Whilst performing my PhD research, I had the opportunity to improve my epidemiological skills by completing a Masters’ degree in Clinical Epidemiology at the University of Utrecht. After completion off my PhD I specialized to become a pediatrician. Based on my strong interest to work in sub-Saharan Africa, I completed part of my clinical training in pediatrics at Tygerberg Hospital, Stellenbosch University, South Africa and later also at Red Cross Childrens’ Hospital. During this time, I realized my passion was to improve health care in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) like South Africa, by performing highly relevant clinical research to address the pressing health care issues experienced in these settings. I started working at the Desmond Tutu TB centre, Stellenbosch University in 2014 and have since received multiple grants for my work on lung health in children with pulmonary tuberculosis, including NIH and EDCTP career fellowships.
During the COVID pandemic, I have been actively involved in the response of the Paediatric Department in Tygerberg Hospital to assist with Infection Prevention Control training of health care workers, contact tracing of health care workers and the development of a COVID research protocol that includes routine care surveillance and a prospective observational cohort.
