Curriculum Vitae
Sander Bob Engelsma was born on the 2nd of November 1986 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. After
completing his secondary HAVO education at the Openbare Schoolgemeenschap Bijlmer in 2004, he started studying chemistry at the University of Applied Science in Leiden. In the final year, he conducted his internship in the bio-organic synthesis group of prof. dr. G. A. van der Marel and prof. dr. H. S. Overkleeft, where he worked on the synthesis of 1-deoxynojirimicin analogues as glycosidase inhibitors. After receiving his HLO bachelor degree in organic chemistry in 2009, he started the master Chemical Research – Design & Synthesis at Leiden University. As part of this study a research internship was carried out at the bio-organic synthesis group. This research, under supervision of prof. dr. H. S. Overkleeft, resulted in the master thesis ‘Molecular Tools for the Two-Step Activity-Based Profiling of Glycosidases’ and with that he finalized his master’s studies and obtained Master degree in March 2012.
In Januari 2012 he started his PhD studies at Leiden University in the bio-organic synthesis group, under the supervision of prof. dr. G. A. van der Marel (promotor) and the daily guidance of dr. D. V. Filippov (co-promotor). Parts of the work described herein were orally presented at the Dutch Peptide Symposium (May 2015) and CHAINS (December 2015). Poster presentations were given at Cambridge (July 2015) and several national conferences.
