Stephanie van der Voorn
Stephanie has completed her PhD on non-invasive biomarkers in cardiomyopathies at the University Medical Center Utrecht. During her PhD, she studied multiple biomarkers, such as the role of a specific polymorphism in disease onset, abnormal protein expression of plakoglobin in buccal mucosa and increased fibrosis biomarkers in serum of arrhythmogenic or phospholamban (PLN) cardiomyopathy patients.
Following her PhD, Stephanie started to work as project coordinator for Check@Home. The goal of this project is to develop a roadmap for a national screening program focused on the early detection of cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes and their common risk factors.
In this role, Stephanie combines coordination of the project and project management. Day to day tasks include preparation of the study protocols, monitoring of study progress, reporting study progress to funding agencies and stakeholder management.
