\nCurriculum vitae<\/span><\/em><\/h2>\n

The author of this thesis was born on August 29th, 1982 in Leiden, The Netherlands. In 2000 she graduated cum laude from the Bernardinuscollege (Gymnasium) in Heerlen and went to medical school in Utrecht. During her studies she became interested in cell biology, oncology and radiology and therefore did an internship at the department of Radiation Oncology of the Princess Margaret Hospital (Toronto, Canada). During this internship she learned about the existence of radiobiology and decided she wanted to become a radiation oncologist and radiobiologist. In the final year of her training she did a research internship in the group of prof.dr. Adrian C. Begg at the Netherlands Cancer Institute – Antoni van Leeuwenhoek. After obtaining her Medical Degree in 2007, she continued her research on gene expression profiles to predict radioresistance of head and neck cancer. This research was funded by a joint KWF (Dutch Cancer Society) project supervised by prof.dr. Adrian C. Begg, prof.dr. Michiel W.M. van den Brekel, dr. Frank J. Hoebers, prof. dr. Coen R.N. Rasch and prof.dr. Marcel Verheij. The research was combined with a residency at the department of Radiation Oncology at the same institute. On December 1st, 2017 she will finalize her radiation oncology residency (supervisors: drs. Joost L. Knegjens and dr. Astrid N. Scholten).<\/p>\n
