Marcel Bekkenk

I have been a dermatologist since 2005 and in 2021 I was appointed head of the dermatology department of the Amsterdam UMC and professor of dermatology at the Vrije Universiteit. The research I am involved in is mainly focused on melanoma and not melanoma skin cancer, immunotherapy and its side effects.

Due to the collaboration between the dermatology departments of the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Hospital and the Amsterdam UMC, I will work here at the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Hospital for a while. The short lines of communication and easy multidisciplinary cooperation are strengths of the Antoni van Leeuwenhoek Hospital and it is therefore a very pleasant place to work.
