Carolien Maas, MSc, is working on her PhD at the Netherlands Comprehensive Cancer Organization (IKNL), Erasmus Medical Center (EMC), and Tufts Medical Center. Her research focuses on the prognosis and optimal treatment of cancer patients.

Her background in Econometrics allows her to have a data-driven perspective. During her Econometrics bachelor degree at the University of Amsterdam (UvA), she broadened her knowledge by taking courses on Programming and Artificial Intelligence. Her master degree in Business Analytics and Quantitative Marketing at Erasmus University (EUR) provided her with many data science techniques that are frequently useful in practice. She aims to contribute to data-driven solutions to provide treatment plans tailored to fit each individual patient.
