About me

Hey! I'm Robin. As an engineer specialized in physics, I'm finishing the last year of my Ph.D. at imec and Ghent University. This page gives a more elaborate overview of what I do.

My interest lies in (computational) modelling of high tech with applied physics. I have visited over 30 countries and love spending time on music, cooking, and sports.

Currently open for opportunities starting Nov. 2026!

Some highlights of my work

Robotic electromagnetic field measurement setup

Research · Measurements

Digital-twin calibration

Measurements in real environments of electromagnetic fields, using a robotic arm.

Scientific software

Software details

GOLIAT

GOLIAT is a Python framework that automates electromagnetic field (EMF) dosimetry simulations from start to finish. Calculate Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in digital human phantoms with minimal manual intervention, whether you're simulating a phone call (near-field) or environmental exposure (far-field).

AEGIS

Full-stack platform that computes real-time EM exposure on humans in realistic 3D environments.
