I am a professor of Freight Transport and Logistics at the Eindhoven  University of Technology in the Netherlands. I develop models for transport, logistics, and mobility problems using operations research techniques. I established a strong academic foundation in supply chains, transportation, logistics, and mobility. 

My research focuses on freight transport and logistics, where I have made significant contributions throughout my career. I authored over 165 papers in academic journals, including Management Science, Transportation Science, and Transportation Research Part B. More information on all my publications can also be found on Google Scholar (with a current h-index of 66 and over 15,300 citations to my work).

In my research, I collaborate with approximately 15 Ph.D. students and various colleagues worldwide. I utilize operations research models and techniques, such as integer programming, branch-and-price, and metaheuristics, to address challenges in transport and logistics. Additionally, I apply artificial intelligence methodologies, including reinforcement learning and other machine learning approaches, to solve complex problems in the field.

Smart Logistics in action: Companies are our key laboratory for doing research in supply chains, logistics and operations.
