My life/work motto
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning how to dance in the rain.
My research
Studies on the regulation of steroid hormones and sexual development and its variants in humans. Molecular genetic and translational research projects in this field of rare and common diseases.
My particular skills/experiences
Balancing act between laboratory research and clinical work (“bench and bed”). I can read steroid profiles, but not sewing patterns. Team and working group leadership. (Inter)national networking.
My measures to promote diversity
Open door policy and mentoring for everyone
My recommendations for young female researchers on the academic career path
Nothing is impossible! Because where there's a will, there's a way.
