Nida Gizem Yilmaz

In July 2017, I finished the Master’s programme Management, Policy Analysis, and Entrepreneurship in Health & Life Sciences at the VU University. Although my study was more focused on business-related topics, I did some internships in the domain of social sciences. As a graduate intern, I investigated the information-seeking behaviour of older Turkish cancer patients, and their technology acceptance. In December 2017 I started working at the Department of Public and Occupational. Currently, I’m working on the project ‘Optimizing decision support tools for older cancer patients’. In this project, I’ll investigate how existing online decision support tools can be optimized for older lung cancer patients and breast cancer patients.
