Mark is PhD candidate in the group of dr. Kenneth Gilhuijs, working on the LIMA project: Liquid Imaging and biopsies for improved (breast) cancer care. The aim of the project is to personalize cancer care by making better predictions on the effectivity of neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
His academic background is at Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). In 2015 he obtained his BSc degree with an award-winning thesis on the detection of early esophageal cancer, supervised by prof. Peter de With and dr. Fons van der Sommen. In 2018 he obtained an MSc degree in Biomedical Engineering and in Electrical Engineering (both cum laude), with a thesis on radiomic analysis of pancreatic cancer, for which he performed research at Radboudumc Nijmegen. For this research he was supervised prof. Josien Pluim, dr. Sveta Zinger and dr. ir. John Hermans.
