Maartje Schreurs

Maartje Schreurs is a Researcher in the Department of Medical Oncology at Erasmus MC, specializing in hereditary cancer genetics with a primary focus on CHEK2 mutations. Her work integrates genomic analysis, risk assessment, and clinical epidemiology within the Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Research Group Netherlands (HEBON).

Her research interests center on genetic risk stratification for breast and ovarian cancers, particularly through polygenic risk scores, breast density analysis, and germline mutation studies. Key areas include:

• CHEK2 c.1100delC carrier risk profiles
• Multi-site cancer risk beyond breast tissue
• Integration of genetic, lifestyle, and imaging biomarkers
• Structural variant analysis in tumor genomics

Her recent publications demonstrate strong collaboration within national consortia, particularly through the HEBON-CHEK2 cohort. While no formal awards are documented, her work appears in high-impact journals including Genetics in Medicine and Breast Cancer Research. She actively contributes to clinical risk modeling frameworks used in Dutch cancer prevention programs, though no specific labs or teams are explicitly named in her profiles.
