As sr. Scientific Researcher at Omnigen I am responsible for the scientific legitimacy of the DNA-analysis and products and services that are provided. Omnigen not only has B2C products but also provides services to different B2B costumers in which I explore the possibilities to implement the genetic data toward different purposes and also manage these.

Rotterdam Area, Netherlands

Omnigen provides genetic profiles directly to consumers. With a DNA home test people can obtain their own DNA sample which is analysed by Omnigen and people receive an online portal with their results. My role as a freelance consultant at Omnigen was to explore and implement new genetic markers to their current products. Furthermore I evaluated which.

I use primary dorsal root ganglia in a co-culture with astrocytes and oligodendrocytes to determine the effect of astrocytes on myelination. These rat and (transgenic) mouse co-cultures provide insights in the lipid metabolism of oligodendrocytes and the role of astrocytes herein.

Amsterdam, The Netherlands

To test the potency of mouse induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) in vitro, I use primary dorsal root ganglia co-cultures in which the myelination of these cells can be studied in pursuit of stem cell therapy for childhood white matter diseases.

This internship I researched the role of reactive oxygen species in Multiple sclerosis gaining expertise in (primary) cell culture, immuno-fluorescent histo- and cytochemical staining, cryosectioning and enzyme reaction assays.

Leiden, The Netherlands

This internship included the investigation of population genetics and evolution in two closely related species of lizards by allozyme assay, DNA sequencing and microsattelite analysis.

Amsterdam, The Netherlands

This internship involved fermentation culturing of bacteria, and enzymatic assays on the cell lysates to investigate the ammonium assimilation in E. coli.
