Dr. Kees de Hoogh is an Assistant Professor and Researcher at Utrecht University's Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Department of Population Health Sciences, and the Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences (IRAS). He holds a joint appointment as Assistant Professor at the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute in Basel. His research focuses on spatial modeling and exposure assessment for environmental health studies, with specialization in exposome research and air pollution analysis.
Primary research interests include:
- Advanced spatio-temporal modeling techniques using satellite data
- Exposome studies linking environmental exposures to health outcomes
- Air pollution exposure assessment methodologies
- Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications in public health
His recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on air pollution modeling, exposure assessment methods, and environmental health impacts across European populations. Research consistently explores the relationships between environmental factors (air quality, green space, temperature) and health outcomes including metabolic disorders, respiratory diseases, dementia, and stroke.
Dr. de Hoogh leads significant research initiatives:
- Co-Principal Investigator of EXPANSE (European project)
- Co-PI of NWO Gravitation programme Exposome-NL
- Co-PI of Utrecht Exposome Hub
- Principal Investigator of MOBI-AIR studies
- Contributor to BioSHARE, ESCAPE, and ELAPSE projects
He works within the Institute for Risk Assessment Sciences (IRAS) and collaborates through the Utrecht Exposome Hub, focusing on interdisciplinary approaches to environmental health challenges.
