Dr. Schladerer specializes in healthcare quality assessment frameworks with emphasis on pediatric oncology systems. Her doctoral research established international and Swiss-specific quality benchmarks for pediatric cancer centers, and she currently applies health data science methodologies to national healthcare improvement initiatives. Her work bridges clinical practice, data analytics, and health policy evaluation to drive evidence-based quality standards in medical care delivery.

As an early-career researcher, she has not yet taken on formal student advising roles. Her current projects receive institutional support through the Competence Center for Health Data Science, focusing on healthcare quality benchmarking without externally funded grants mentioned in her profile.

She actively contributes to Dr. Havranek's research team at the Competence Center for Health Data Science, which develops data-driven strategies for Swiss healthcare institutions to translate complex health metrics into actionable quality improvement protocols.
