As Associate Scientist I worked in project teams with the task to set up biologicalrelevant models that can mimic a disease state. This is performed in primary orpatient cells with the use of a biological relevant trigger. After confirmation of thedisease relevance of the model, they need to be transferred to a format that allowsfor high throughput.

In the group of René Benards I worked closely together with postdoc Bastiaan Evers on his projects. The aim of these projects was to find novel synthetic lethal interactions that can be exploited and used to improve current cancer treatments, with the main focus on chromatin modifying genes in bladder cancer. In order to find these novel synthetic lethal.

Subject:The effect of anti-inflammatory drugs on leukocyte migration and gene expression in zebrafish.Description:In this project I first developed a model that allowed us to study the inflammation response in zebrafish embryos. This was followed by the development of a method that simultaneously detects neutrophils and macrophages in a single embryo..

Subject:Functional characterization of the OPENGLUME-gene in rice and the role of OGM1 in the signal transduction of the plant hormone Jasmonic Acid.Description:During this project I developed transgenic plant lines, in which the OGM1 gene was made visible with the help of GFP and GUS. In this project specific techniques for growing transgenic plants were.
