Martine de Boer

Martine de Boer is a Researcher at Erasmus MC's Department of Cardiology, specializing in cardiovascular molecular mechanisms and cardiac imaging. Her research examines the intersection of DNA repair pathways and cardiac function, particularly in heart failure contexts.

Her investigations span:

• Molecular mechanisms of DNA damage/repair in cardiomyocytes
• Cardiac imaging techniques including micro-CT and echocardiography
• Apoptosis pathways in heart failure progression
• Exercise-induced cardiac adaptation mechanisms
• Age-related vascular dysfunction
• Rodent models of cardiac disease

De Boer's publications demonstrate consistent focus on translational cardiology, with recent work (2023-2024) emphasizing molecular imaging and DNA repair pathways in cardiac failure models. Her collaborative research involves multi-institutional teams across Europe.
