Eline Bekkers

Eline Bekkers is a researcher in the Department of Medical Informatics at Erasmus University Rotterdam, specializing in reproductive epidemiology with focus on environmental, nutritional, and anthropometric determinants of fertility and pregnancy outcomes.

Her research centers on how chemical exposures (bisphenols, phthalates), dietary factors (polyunsaturated fatty acids), and body mass index affect time to pregnancy and miscarriage risk. She employs prospective cohort methodologies to investigate preconception health in both women and men, addressing subfertility and spontaneous abortion through population-based studies that integrate clinical outcomes with epidemiological analysis.

Analysis of her recent publications reveals consistent emphasis on couple-based approaches and the periconception window, with growing attention to modifiable lifestyle factors. Current work trends include environmental toxicant exposure assessment and nutritional intervention potentials, reflecting interdisciplinary integration of medical informatics and clinical epidemiology.
