  • Profile

    Since 2015 I have been a member of the Academic Skills and Student Centered Education teacher team.  Within the team I am an educational developer and teacher for courses such as The Cell and Academic Skillss. 

    I am also coordinator of the Biomedical Sciences Honours Programme, and coordinator and/or teacher in BMW honours courses such as The Century of Life Sciences, Molecular Systems Biology, and Research Proposal. 

    Previously I have done research as PhD-student and Postdoc researcher at the Academic Centre for Dentistry Amsterdam, investigating the complex relationship between pathogens and the human host.  

  • Expertise-team Academic Skills and Student Centric Education (AV-SO)

    Vision and Mission

    The expertise-team Academic Skills and Student Centric Education (Academische Vaardigheden en Studentgecentreerd Onderwijs) aims to collaborate with research institutes, teachers and course-coordinators to develop and provide high quality innovative, research-focussed education. 

    The team consists of experienced, motivated teachers with a scientific background in various fields within (medical) biology.

    We wish to contribute to student talent development using our expertise and passion.  

     

    Quick links to my team members can be found on my Dutch profile page.
