Writing the last chapter of this PhD thesis feels like turning a chapter in my life. Both exciting and frightening, both a relief and a sorrow… It is time to say goodbye and thank everybody!
First of all, this thesis would not have been possible without Louise, my co-promotor, who offered me the opportunity to graduate while already working in her group. Although challenging, I had the chance to meet and collaborate with international researchers in the CAA field which was totally new to me. Louise, thank you for your support in all my projects over the years, I particularly appreciated your scientific curiosity and your enthusiasm to explore new fields.
Then, these years of graduation and this thesis would not have been the same without the essential contribution of Willeke, my second co-promotor. Willeke, thank you for your continuous encouragements, your responsiveness and your positive thinking! I learnt a lot from you and I’m deeply grateful!
Next I‘m thankful to actual and former colleagues, mostly from human genetics at lab-f and lab-j who are too many to be named here, for their contribution to such a friendly working environment. I especially thank the Huntington group: Melvin, Lodewijk, Barry and Elena, thank you for your help and the nice co-working in the lab. I also warmly thank our radiology team, more specially Marjolein for her concern, help and wise advices, and Marc, Leon, Maarten, Tien, Boyd, Bauke and Ernst for having been such amazing colleagues!
Of course I do not forget Linda for her essential contribution to this work, her good mood and fantastic organization skills ‘’You’re so fast!!!’’. Linda, thank you for these years where we shared more than the daily work.
I also want to warmly thank Gerrit Kracht who worked on all the illustrations of this thesis.
Most importantly, my gratitude goes to Remy, my husband, who encouraged me in this adventure from its start and to Estelle, our daughter, to who I can finally answer ‘’yes, I finished my book’’! Their constant support is invaluable. I also want to thank here my family and friends for their encouragements.
