Research focus
As a business economist, I am mostly focusing on treatment costs. I am particularly involved in research on the health economic aspects of proton therapy for thoracic tumours. I am an expert in time-driven activity-based costing and the design of management accounting and control systems more generally. I enjoy working in interdisciplinary teams as it enables me to enhance the societal impact of my research. Creating synergies with passionate researchers from different disciplines energizes me.
