M.R. Levers BSc (Marloes) | University of Twente

My name is Marloes Levers. I’m a biomedical research technician and obtained my bachelor’s degree at Saxion Hogeschool Deventer in 2007. I started as a research technician in the group of Frank van Leeuwen at the laboratory of pediatric oncology at Radboud UMC in Nijmegen. After that I’ve worked at the Tissue Regeneration department at the UT and later for the spin-off company Materiomics.

Currently I work with human induced pluripotent stem cells, which we differentiate into neurons. To study the initial development and progression of the pathophysiology.
