Credentials & CV of Prof. Dr. H.E.M. Vereecke, MD, PhD

Prof. Dr. Hugo E.M. Vereecke (°04/07/1972), MD, PhD became a medical doctor at the Ghent University, Belgium (1997) and consultant anesthesiologist (2002) at the University Hospital Ghent, Belgium. After finishing his PhD Thesis (2007) on improving anesthetic drug titration using neuro-physiological monitoring, he proceeded an academic career at the University Medical Center Groningen (2010-current), the Netherlands, where he became an assistant professor in anesthesia (2015-current).

He is involved in multiple study-projects related to anesthetic pharmacology: improving pharmacokinetic-dynamic models for anesthetic drugs; using interaction models to predict responsiveness during anesthesia; exploring the use of electroencephalographic derived information to assist the clinician towards an improved and individualized titration of anesthetic drugs.

Prof. Dr. Hugo E.M. Vereecke currently combines his academic position with a consultancy at the general hospital AZ Sint-Jan Brugge-Oostende AV, Brugge, Belgium. (2016-current) His current aim is to initiate and/or support new clinical study-projects related to the implementation of model based, target controlled drug titration. He is treasurer at the board of the International Society of Anesthetic Pharmacology (ISAP, USA) and is an experienced lecturer and educator in his domain of expertise. His publication list includes peer reviewed research papers, book chapters and editorials in multiple highly cited anesthesia journals.

Attachment: Recent academic CV

Bios:

Prof. Dr. Hugo E.M. Vereecke (°04/7/1972), MD, PhD studeerde geneeskunde aan de Universiteit Gent (1997) en werd erkend anesthesioloog (2002) aan het Universitair Ziekenhuis Gent, België. Na het succesvol afleggen van zijn doctoraatsthesis (2007) rond het optimaliseren van anesthesietitratie door gebruik te maken van neurofysiologische monitoring, vervolgde hij zijn academische loopbaan in het Universitair Medisch Centrum Groningen (2010-heden) in Nederland, waar hij docent (assistent professor) werd in de anesthesiologie (2015-heden).

Hij is betrokken bij meerdere studieprojecten rond anesthetische farmacologie. Onderwerpen van zijn interesse zijn: het verbeteren van farmacokinetische-dynamische modellen voor het toedienen van anesthetica, het gebruik van interactiemodellen om reactiviteit tijdens anesthesie te voorspellen, het exploreren van elektro-encefalografisch gemeten informatie om de clinicus te ondersteunen in het individualiseren van titratie van anesthetica.

Prof. Dr. Hugo E.M. Vereecke combineert zijn academische aanstelling momenteel met een functie als erkend anesthesioloog in het AZ Sint-Jan Brugge-Oostende AV, Brugge, België. (2016-heden) Zijn huidige doelstellingen zijn om nieuwe studieprojecten op te starten en/of te ondersteunen met betrekking tot het klinisch implementeren van modelgebaseerde titratie van anesthetica. Hij is tevens schatbewaarder van “the International Society of Anesthetic Pharmacology (ISAP, USA)” en is een ervaren en gedreven spreker op congressen en een bevlogen docent binnen zijn expertisegebied. Zijn publicatielijst omvat “peer reviewed” onderzoeksrapporten, hoofdstukken in educatieve boeken en editorialen in meerdere vaak geciteerde anesthesie tijdschriften.
