Jan-Willem is a physicist who after his PhD started his research group in an academic hospital. Using his background in experimental physics, he develops novel technologies to enable MRI for ocular conditions and apply them clinically.
After his obtaining his master’s degree in Medical Physics, Corné started his PhD as part of the COMPOSE project to develop techniques to accurately combine optical fundus imaging with MRI. He is one of the active maintainers of ZOSPy.
Since 2015, Martijn works as a medical physics engineer specialized in image-guided radiotherapy. In 2023, he started as a PhD on clipless ocular proton therapy, together with the HollandPTC, and, more specifically, on the uncertainties within the current workflow.
After obtaining her master’s degree in Technical Medicine, Lisa started her PhD aiming to improve ocular proton treatment planning with MRI. She combines research with patient care as a clinical technologist at HollandPTC.
After his training as a medical doctor, Lennart went on to pursue his PhD working on MRI-based eye modelling and radiotherapy treatment planning, including NTCP modeling of the eye’s healthy structures.
After earning his medical degree with a keen interest in Ophthalmology, Michael started his PhD, evaluating the clinical benefits MRI for uveal melanoma.
After obtaining a double MSc degree in Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering from Delft University of Technology, Bas started to develop an immobilization device to use in both the MRI and Eye Treatment Room.
Ashaya is completing her master’s thesis in Biomedical Technology and Physics, focusing on the automated segmentation of uveal melanomas in MR images.
As members of the Leiden Ocular Tumor Center, we have tight interactions with both clinicians and scientists. These collaborations allows us to achieve a swift translation from technical development to societal impact.
