Prof. Dr. Sebastiaan Meijer
Bio:
Prof. Dr. Sebastiaan Meijer (male). Doctoral degree Wageningen University (NL, 2009), Docent degree KTH (2012). Meijer is head of department of Biomedical Engineering and Health Systems and research leader for Health Informatics and Logistics.
He pioneered many projects (EU FP7, EIT Digital, EIT Health, Dutch and Swedish Science and Innovation agencies), always on the intersection between simulation methods, formal analysis including data mining and AI, and human knowledge and expertise through gaming and participatory modelling. He (co-) authored over 120 peer reviewed publications and has multiple open source repositories created over the last decade. He joined KTH in 2012 and became full professor 2014, leadership positions from 2017.
