VIB
I studied bio-engineering at KU Leuven, Belgium. After graduating, I moved to London for an MSc in Clinical Neuroscience at UCL. I returned to my home country for my PhD, which I obtained working in the lab of Bart De Strooper at VIB and KU Leuven. Though this group is primarily focused on Alzheimer’s disease, I studied the activity of PINK1, a kinase linked to Parkinson’s disease.
After my PhD, I worked as a postdoc at the Dementia Collaborative Research Center at UNSW Sydney. With this move across the globe, I also moved from molecular experiments to working with data from large cohort studies, assessing cognitive decline and its accompanying symptoms.

It can also be beneficial to have an external party that brings a fresh perspective to your story—someone unbiased by internal sensitivities.
