I received MSc in Regenerative Biology and Medicine at the Dresden University of Technology in 2023. I then joined the LUMC as a PhD candidate in the Islet group (led by Prof. Dr. Eelco de Koning and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Françoise Carlotti) and the Center for Cell and Gene therapy (led by Dr. Pauline Meij). Here I am working on the translation of iPSC-derived islets to the clinic by defining the regulatory roadmap of the stem cell products and developing Quality Control assays for this cell therapy.
