Projectmanager

Phone Floor van Leeuwen Marjanka Schmidt

In 2020, I joined the NKI-AVL as post-doc project coordinator of the Hebon Infrastructue project. With Hebon we aim to accommodate research in familial breast and ovarian cancer, both in families with mutations (such as BRCA and CHEK2) and without mutations. By further improving efficient and high quality data acquisition in all participating academic hospitals in the Netherlands and the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek our goal is to continue to contribute to scientific research.

I am affiliated with the Divisions of Psychosocial Research and Epidemiology (Group Van Leeuwen); Molecular Pathology (Group Schmidt).
