My name is Joost Beusekamp and I am 27 years of age. In 2018, I started with my MD/PhD program focusing on serum electrolytes in patients with heart failure. Currently, I am in the last year of this program, which combines clinical internships with your research projects. In Augustus 2020, I received my medical degree and since this is the last year of my research period, I hope to obtain my PhD in the upcoming year.
Supervisors: prof. Peter van der Meer MD PhD, prof. Adriaan Voors MD PhD, and Jasper Tromp MD PhD.
