Jules is an Assistant Professor at the Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences (IRAS) of Utrecht University, focusing on exposure assessment. Topics include the (mobile monitoring) of multiple air pollutants (UFP, BC), heat and noise.
Jules coordinates the exposure line within the Exposome-NL program and keeps an eye on collaboration opportunities between the individual projects. He has an active supervision role in the panel study (in which volunteers are followed for 2 weeks by GPS movement and collect data on several environmental pollutants) and linking the Streetview imagery to environmental data.
I hope that the new group of enthusiastic researchers learn from each other and contribute to a more healthy environment.

The environment we live in has a dominant impact on our health. It explains an estimated seventy percent of the chronic disease burden. Where we live, what we eat, how much we exercise, the air we breathe and whom we associate with; all of these environmental factors play a role. The combination of these factors over the life course is called the exposome. There is general (scientific) consensus that understanding more about the exposome will help explain the current burden of disease and that it provides entry points for prevention and ...
