Professor of Extracellular Matrix in Disease Pathogenesis Profile
Professor of Extracellular Matrix in Disease Pathogenesis

I am a translational scientist and full professor of extracellular matrix in disease pathogenesis with a focus on lung diseases. My research explores the changes in the tissue and airway structures of the lungs that occur during disease development and progression and investigates if these changes are a cause or a consequence of the pathology. This research is embedded within the Groningen Research Institute for Asthma and COPD (GRIAC). As a teacher and mentor, I am involved with masters programs relating to matrix and tissue regeneration.
