I have been working at the Netherlands Cancer Institute as a lung specialist since 2007. I combine my care for patients with my own PhD research into immunotherapy in mesothelioma (cancer caused by asbestos).

Lung oncology is a fascinating field, which is currently seeing many revolutionary discoveries and treatment options. The best part of working at the Netherlands Cancer Institute is being able to immediately implement all these new developments in our clinic. I highly value being able to create a treatment plan together with the person in front of me.
