Welcome to my website.

This website gives you a quick, but comprehensive overview of my professional achievements in a more personal setting.

Currently I’m situated at the UMC Utrecht department of Pathology in the breast cancer research group of Prof. Dr. Patrick Derksen (www.derksenlab.org). As an assistant professor in his group I supervise students, teach courses on the university level, supervise Ph.D. students, apply for funding, and manage my own projects.

University Lecturer in the Biomedicine Student Research Hun. Here we unite stakeholders (Biotech/experts/researchers/patients) with bachelor students to create synergy and interdisciplinary collaborations to study societal relevant research questions. Website: www.bachelorresearchhub.com, led by Prof. Dr. Niels Bovenschen

I’m fortunate to be at the fore front of translating discovery-based fundamental science to patient relevant therapeutic interventions.
