Pol Nachtergaele joins KNoWS
Hello everyone,
I'm Pol Nachtergaele, a new PhD student with the KNoWS team.
I'm 24 years old, and my academic journey has been quite diverse,
spanning Industrial Engineering and Computer Science.
Last year, I completed my Master’s in Information Engineering Technology, where I wrote my thesis
under the guidance of Prof. Femke Ongenae.
My work focused on combining multiple ontologies to semantically annotate machine learning code,
thereby generating provenance for processed data.
For my PhD, I will be working on the PACSOI project, which aims to implement Solid technology
within the healthcare sector.
I will be collaborating closely with Prof. Femke Ongenae and Dr. Ben De Meester.
Outside of work, I spend most of my time with my friends from scouts in Kortrijk, where I live.
I'm still exploring new hobbies to strike that perfect work-life balance.
I enjoy a good book and love going to the cinema, whether it's for a big blockbuster or an indie film.
I look forward to becoming a true part of the KNoWS team.
