Expertisegebied, grote belangen en overlegonderwerpen:

My expertise is in health literacy, with a strong focus on written health information. I use qualitative and quantitative methods (and often both simultaneously) to develop, refine, and test interventions to support health literacy in health organisations. I am also interested in how we can leverage AI technologies to improve application of health literacy principles to health information and services.
