Sophie Lathouwers is a Scientist Innovator at TNO with 11 years of experience combining software engineering and data-driven research, following a PhD in Computer Science from the University of Twente focused on deductive program verification. She bridges formal methods and practical tooling—exploring program analysis, specification generation, developer tooling, and usability—to make complex verification techniques more accessible to practitioners. Her work spans ontologies, knowledge graphs, distributed systems, and trustworthy AI, reflecting a knack for turning theoretical insights into usable tools. Sophie’s background in cybersecurity and hands-on teaching informs a pragmatic approach to developer experience and open science, and she enjoys automating hard specification tasks that traditionally slow down development.
