• Affiliation: Erasmus MC, Molecular Genetics

Research Interests:

• Gene expression profiling under fasting conditions
• DNA repair mechanisms in progeroid mice
• Metabolic effects of high-protein/low-carbohydrate diets
• Cardiac failure in genetic disease models
• Clinical translation of caloric restriction

Publications highlight interdisciplinary work at the intersection of genetics, nutrition, and immunology, with recent studies on fasting, dietary impacts on aging, and cardiac dysfunction imaging.
