Danielle is a geospatial environmental epidemiologist specializing environmental pollution and its impact on human health. Her research on the exposome explores the complex relationships between environmental exposures—such as air pollution, transportation noise, greenspaces, ambient light, temperature, and radon—and health outcomes. She applies her specific expertise in geographic information science (GISc) and GIS technologies to population health research, bridging spatial data with epidemiological insights. Her work spans exposure assessment, health impact evaluation, and epidemiological analysis, contributing to both scientific understanding and policy development within Europe.

She habilitated at the University of Basel. Formerly at Swiss TPH, she has been a driving force behind studies on source-specific transportation noise within the Swiss National Cohort. She also has served as an expert on the Health Effects Institute (HEI) Panel examining long-term exposure to traffic-related air pollution.

An active member of the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology (ISEE), Danielle has served multiple terms as a councilor and currently co-chairs Team 3 on Non-Auditory Effects of Noise within the International Commission on Biological Effects of Noise (ICBEN).
