Biography
I obtained my PhD degree from Erasmus University Medical Center Rotterdam, The Netherlands. My thesis focused on liposomal targeting of antimicrobial agents. From 2000-2011, I worked at the dept Pharmaceutics of Utrecht University working on polymers, micelles and liposomes, loaded with small molecular weight drugs as well as biologicals, targeting a variety of diseases. Within this period, I spent 2002-2003 working for Intradigm Co. (USA) on formulations for in vivo targeting of siRNA. In 2007, I obtained a Vidi grant from NWO to start my own research line, in 2009 I received the Galenus Research Award for my drug delivery work and in 2010 was awarded an ERC Starting Grant (consolidator phase) to investigate extracellular vesicles for drug delivery. In 2011, I moved to University Medical Center Utrecht where I complement my research lines on drug targeting with investigations on nanoparticles in diagnostic applications.
