Rebecca primarily teaches in two master programs: MSc Epidemiology and Methods and Statistics in the Behavioural, Biomedical, and Social Sciences.

She also teaches in the extracurricular course “Biostatistics for Researchers” and Survival Analysis. She loves teaching all levels of statistical courses, but her research and teaching interests align in the analysis of longitudinal data.

Rebecca moved to the Netherlands in 1999. She obtained her bachelor’s degree in math and her master’s degree in biostatistics in the United States, and her PhD in the Netherlands. She worked at several research institutes in the US and Netherlands before joining the University of Utrecht in 2006 and the UMC Utrecht in 2008, where she teaches with enthusiasm and regularly collaborates in biomedical research projects. In her spare time, she likes to go on long walks with friends, to bake, and to make hopefully-not-too-hideous adult education pottery.
