Research Interest
For my first master (History and Philosophy of Science, UU) I studied the relation between immunological and molecular cancer research from the 1980s until now. Taking the NKI as a case study, I employed anthropological and historical methods to identify how and why these two branches of cancer research converge over time. Currently I am doing my major internship for my second master (Cancer and Stem Cell Biology, UU). Together with my supervisor Telma Lança, I aim to study the contribution of the mutational load to a tumor's immunogenicity in vivo.
