Short bio:

I am a PhD student at the Physical Activity and Health group at Ghent University. My research explores how individual and environmental factors influence physical activity in vulnerable populations, including older adults and individuals diagnosed with epilepsy. Therefore, I have conducted qualitative walk-along interviews and intensive longitudinal observational studies using both event-based and geo-based ecological momentary assessment (EMA). Furthermore, to evaluate the effects of specific environmental factors, a virtual reality study will be conducted.
