She has directed the programs on Environmental Toxicology and Environmental Health at VITO ( Flemish Institute for Technological Research) for almost 30 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She has introduced and applied <em>in vitro<\/em> testing in the field of ecotoxicology and has used <em>in vitro<\/em> testing to better understand the effects of environmental chemicals in humans and to discover molecular markers for immunotoxic chemicals and endocrine disruptors. &nbsp;More recently she has coordinated human biomonitoring studies in Flanders and in Europe. Next to exposure information also mechanistic-based effect biomarkers have been applied in human biomonitoring studies, hence bridging <em>in vitro<\/em> research with human molecular epidemiology. Throughout her research, she is committed to improving the dialogue with decision-makers and stakeholders to promote the uptake and use of the scientific results.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She has served as president of ESTIV between 2008 and 2012 and has organized INVITOX2006 in &nbsp;Ostend , Belgium. &nbsp;She has been a member of various expert panels ( European Food Safety Agency, DG-SANTE, CEFIC-LRI, European Environment Agency)&nbsp; and has managed and participated in many European and national projects.&nbsp; She is the author and co-author of more than 250 manuscripts in peer-reviewed journals on environmental health, environmental toxicology, risk and health impact assessment, molecular epidemiology, and biomonitoring. <a href=\"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6556-4814\">https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6556-4814<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.estiv.org\/content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/honorary-memberhip-greet-.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3169\" width=\"406\" height=\"475\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.estiv.org\/content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/honorary-memberhip-greet-.jpg 657w, https:\/\/www.estiv.org\/content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/honorary-memberhip-greet--386x452.jpg 386w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 406px) 100vw, 406px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"block-heading\">About the ESTIV Honorary Membership<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>ESTIV Honorary membership is granted to an ESTIV member for his\/her extraordinary merits in the pursuit of the aims of ESTIV.
