Maria Kuiper

I have been working at the Netherlands Cancer Institute since 1998. In recent years, as a nurse specialist, I have been part of the team involved in the chemotherapeutic treatment of patients with gastric and colorectal carcinomas. This also concerns treatments in a study context. I co-follow-up, guide and support these patients in the medical and nursing field during the treatment period. I also play a role in the organization of the treatment process for the individual patient.

At the Netherlands Cancer Institute, the connection between research and patient care is clearly visible. This, the diversity of my tasks and the patient-oriented, involved work, means that I can contribute to high-quality, effective treatment methods.
