Curriculum Vitae

I graduated in 2005 as a Master in Biomedical sciences at the University of Antwerp. I wrote my master thesis on 'The effects of ethinylestradiol on different levels of biological organization in the zebrafish (Danio rerio)' at the EB&T lab. I really enjoyed making my thesis here and it is since then that my interest in ecotoxicological research started to grow. In Octobre 2005 I applied for a grand at the IWT (Agency for Innovation by Science and Technology) with a positive outcome and I started my PhD, entitled 'An integrated toxicological evaluation of perfluorinated compounds in aquatic organisms'. In May 2011 I finished my PhD and started as a postdoc researcher.
