Research Interests

  • Environmental risk assessment of chemicals, especially pesticides and their impact on (agro)ecosystems
  • Global pesticide regulation practices, environmental politics and risk mitigation
  • Application of graph theory and database management to environmental data

Current Research Projects

  • Optimized use of environmental data for the assessment and regulation of pesticides, evaluation and validity assessment of effect data
  • Evaluation of current pesticide risk assessment practices, regulations and official guidance documents with regards to effect data and species coverage, as well as stated protection goals
  • Development of adequate (bio-)monitoring schemes for intensively managed tropical agroecosystems
  • Development of an ecotoxicological graph database, including effect data
  • Development of a data-based risk information tool for authorities, researchers and stakeholders
