  • Profile

    I am an Assistant Professor in Clinical Neuropsychology at the University of Amsterdam (UvA), Department of Psychology. As a trained neuropsychologist, I'm specialised in brain-behavior relationships in mental health, particularly across the autism and schizophrenia spectra. My mission is to enhance our understanding of neuropsychological overlap and distinctions between autism, schizophrenia, and related mental health disorders. With these efforts, I aim to further advance diagnostic accuracy and make better informed prognostic models to benefit individuals affected by serious mental health conditions.
