Biography
In September 2013 he joined the lab of Hein te Riele to study and improve oligonucleotide-directed subtle gene modification. He will evaluate the role of DNA mismatch repair in suppressing this technology in order to increase it's efficacy and applicability. Previously, he acquired his MSc. at Utrecht University in the 'Cancer Genomics and Developmental Biology'-programme. As a component of my studies he worked in the lab of Torsten Witmman (UCSF) on microtubule cytoskeleton and in the lab of prof. dr. W. de Laat (Hubrecht Institute) on spatial chromatin organization.
