Speaker Biographies
Nathalie Degenaar is a staff-member of the Anton Pannekoek Institute for Astronomy, specialising in X-ray astronomy and studies of black holes and neutron stars in binary systems. She holds a prestigious Vidi Programme grant from NWO and was previously Marie Curie fellow at the University of Cambridge and held a NASA Hubble Fellowship at the University of Michigan. Nathalie completed her MSc and PhD in the Anton Pannekoek Institute.
Bas Gobets studied physics and obtained a PhD in Biophysics, both at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam. After a post-doc at the Image Science Institute at the UMC Utrecht he was trained as a Radiotherapy Medical Physics Expert (MPE, Klinisch fysicus Radiotherapie) at the AMC in Amsterdam. He is currently a Radiotherapy MPE in the Radiotherapy department of the LUMC in Leiden and Reinier de Graaf Gasthuis in Delft. He lives In Leiden with his wife (also a Radiotherapy MPE) and their two children (not (yet) Radiotherapy MPE’s).
