Marleen joined EPIC in July 2004 as a research nutritionist. Marleen comes from The Netherlands and finished her dietetics degree in 1996.  She studied Health Education immediately afterwards and obtained a Master degree in Health Sciences.  She worked as a dietician in a hospital for six years and has had several jobs as a dietician/research assistant at the University of Maastricht.

Her main work is the completing and development of the Vitamin and Mineral Supplement (ViMiS) database.  She also checks and calculates the 7-day EPIC food diaries and has contributed in the redevelopment of this process.  She trains new staff in the use of these computer programs.

Marleen enjoys exploring the United Kingdom very much and hopes that there will be some time left the coming years to keep on doing this while she completes her part-time PhD in Public Heath & Primary Care.
