🌱 As of Jan 1, I started as Assistant Professor at UMC Utrecht – Center for Molecular Medicine.
Very grateful to @dewitlab.bsky.social and @jopkind.bsky.social and to the many other people who supported me along the way.
I’ll be launching the lab soon, focusing on Chromatin Systems Biology.

🧬 Very excited to share our work on dissecting imputation strategies for single-cell histone modification data! academic.oup.com/nargab/artic...
A huge thank you to @robinhweide.bsky.social, @jopkind.bsky.social and Jeroen de Ridder for their collaboration in this project!
Now out in Nature! We visualize infection of the RNA virus RSV in real-time with single-vRNP resolution to understand how RSV establishes viral factories, biomolecular condensates that act as sites of viral replication. A huge collaborative effort led by Dhanushika Ratnayake!

Nature - Viral ribonucleoprotein–viral protein networks form pre-replication centres that nucleate viral factories and drive respiratory syncytial virus replication.
Life’s first kiss – what do we miss? The second annual #HubrechtSymposium2026 is off to a great start with keynote speaker Andrea Pauli on the molecular mechanisms of the egg-to-embryo transition. We're excited for this year's edition on the theme “Molecular Machines in Development”.
