Dr. Marije Strikwold ERT is Associate Professor of Food Chain Safety within the Applied Research Centre of VHL. Marije studied Environmental Science and Biomedical Sciences and obtained her PhD in the Department of Toxicology at Wageningen University.
Marije studies the fate and risks of chemical compounds in the food chain and conducts research on food integrity. Her research also focuses on developing alternatives to animal testing for assessing the risks of chemical substances. Marije is a lecturer in the Forensic Laboratory Research programme at VHL, where she coordinates the minor Food Forensics & Toxicology.
She has experience in developing and applying exposure and physiologically based kinetic (PBK) models, in vitro toxicity and ADME tests, and analytical chemical techniques. She received three awards from the Society of Toxicology for her scientific publications on alternatives to animal testing. Marije is a EUROTOX registered toxicologist.

The Associate Research Group for Food Chain Safety focuses on ensuring food safety from farm to fork. Here, we investigate the fate of substances in the (circular) food chain, identify potential health risks, and establish risk mitigation strategies. Additionally, product integrity (food fraud) is a major focus, and we utilise advanced techniques for kinetic and toxicity testing.
