Lauren Dobischok, MSc
Epidemiologist
Short introduction
My name is Lauren Dobischok and I started as the coordinator of the Pompe Survey at Sophia Children's Hospital on November 1, 2024.
The IPA/Erasmus MC Pompe Survey is an international study that collects data on the effects of Pompe disease on patients’ lives and how these may change with treatment. Although the survey has been ongoing since 2002, as the new coordinator, I’m focused on expanding and further developing it.
Work experience & education
I’m originally from Canada, where I completed my bachelor’s degree in health sciences before coming to Amsterdam for an exchange semester at VUmc. I then returned to the Netherlands to continue my studies at Erasmus MC, where I earned my master’s in epidemiology.
