Curriculum Vitae
Eva van Wanrooij was born on the 29th of March 1979 in Weert, The Netherlands. After her secondary education at the Philips van Horne SG, she obtained a masters degree in Bio-Pharmaceutical sciences at Leiden University in 2002. For her master thesis entitled “Differential gene expression during atherogenesis” she received the Susanne Hovinga award for best bio-medical master thesis. In the same year she started the PhD project described in this thesis under supervision of Dr. Johan Kuiper and Prof. Theo van Berkel.
Vascular genomics, focusing on activation and infiltration of leukocytes in the vessel wall was the main area of research. Various aspects of these studies have been published and presented at international conferences. Next to her scientific research, she obtained a Bachelor of Law degree at Leiden University Law School in 2006, and will finish a Master of Corporate Law at Leiden University in September 2007. In October 2007 she will start as Patent Attorney Trainee at Philips Intellectual Properties & Standards in Eindhoven.
