CURRICULUM VITAE
253 va Biró was born on March 14, 1975 in Debrecen, Hungary. As a child, she had lived (together with her parents, brother and sister) and attended schools in Hungary, England, the United States of America, and Germany. After secondary school she went on to study medicine at the Medical School of the University of Debrecen, Hungary, where she graduated summa cum laude in September 1999. During medical school, she participated in teaching physiology and clinical chemistry to younger students, spent a semester on exchange at the University of Heidelberg, Germany, and took part in research projects at the Department of Clinical Biochemistry and Molecular Pathology of the Medical School in Debrecen, Hungary, partly in collaboration with the Department of Clinical Chemistry of the Leiden University Medical Center in Leiden, the Netherlands.
She started working as a PhD student in September 1999 at the Department of Clinical Biochemistry and Molecular Pathology in Debrecen, and from February 2000 onwards she was employed at the Department of Clinical Chemistry at the Leiden University Medical Center. She was working on projects investigating the composition of cell-derived microparticles and their role in blood coagulation and in inflammatory processes, leading to the present thesis. In 2001, together with her PhD supervisor prof. dr. A. Sturk, co-supervisor dr. R. Nieuwland and a part of the research group, she moved to the Academic Medical Center of the University of Amsterdam in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, where she continued her research until 2005 at the newly founded Department of Experimental Clinical Chemistry. In the meantime, she also obtained her registration as a medical doctor in the Netherlands (‘BIG-registratie’).
In September 2005, she began her training to become a clinical chemist at the Department of Clinical Chemistry, Academic Medical Center, University of Amsterdam (supervisor: prof. dr. A. Sturk), which she aims to finish in August 2009.
