Biography

Dr. Broersen completed her doctorate in the field of protein aggregation at Wageningen University in The Netherlands in 2005. After her postdoctoral study at the MRC-LMB in the UK, she joined the Free University of Brussels (VUB)/Flanders Institute for Biotechnology (VIB) in 2007. Here she headed a research team that studied the molecular mechanism of Alzheimer’s disease. This led to the discovery of molecular pathways of a number of risk factors that affect Alzheimer’s disease pathobiology. Subsequently, she joined the Nanobiophysics Group at the University of Twente/MIRA Institute in The Netherlands as an assistant professor investigating further the impact of protein structures on human health with her team.
