Biography

Miriam Sturkenboom is pharmacoepidemiologist and was professor in Observational Data Analysis at the department of Medical Informatics of the Erasmus University Medical Center in the Netherlands from 2008 until 2017. Mid 2017 she transferred to the department of Global Health at the Julius Center at University Medical Center Utrecht in the Netherlands. She has a PhD from the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics in Groningen (cum laude), a pharmacy degree from the same University and a Master in Epidemiology from the Harvard School of Public Health. She is president of the VACCINE.GRID charity that promotes global research into the effects of vaccines. She is past president of the International Society for Pharmacoepidemiology. She serves as expert to EMA, FDA, WHO and many other organizations

Her research interests focus on knowledge discovery from data collected in routine health care to improve evidence on drug and vaccine safety in particular in vulnerable populations (children, pregnancy and elderly). She established a research group at Erasmus MC that created national and most importantly international socio-technological infrastructures (e.g. Jerboa, Octopus) that allow for big data mining, pooling and analysis. These infrastructures have been tested and used as prototypes in many distributed networks in projects funded by the European Commission, the Innovative Medicines Initiative, the European Medicines Agency, ECDC, and also privately funded projects that she coordinate(d/s). She is coordinator of the ADVANCE public private collaboration, aiming to establish a tested system for the monitoring of benefits and risks of vaccines. In terms of quantitative research outputs: she supervises/d more than 50 PhD students, has more than 380 peer reviewed papers in the area of pharmacovigilance, pharmacoepidemiology and medical informatics and an h-index of 68.
