People
Meet the members of Tom Taghon’s T cell Team.
Imke VelgheLab technicianImke is the lab technician that mainly helps in culturing human pluripotent stem cells to study hematopoiesis and T cell development.
Yana Van DroogenbroeckLab technicianTom PuttemanBio-informaticianTom supports the team by providing bioinformatics expertise in the analysis of both bulk and single cell sequencing data.
Dr. Steven StrubbePhD Student - AlumniSteven's research focuses on the development of novel models to study human hematopoisesis to help better understand genetic immunodeficiencies.
Dr. Marieke LavaertPhD Student - AlumniMarieke engages to help the understanding of human T cell specification and commitment.
Dr. Juliette RoelsPhD Student - AlumniJuliette studies the molecular mechanisms controlling human alpha-beta and gamma-delta T cell bifurcation.
Dr. Matthias De DeckerPhD Student - AlumniMatthias studies HES genes in normal and malignant T cell development.
Dr. Anne-Catherine DolensPhD Student - AlumniAnne-Catherine uses human pluripotent stem cells to study notch signalling in normal and malignant T cell development.
Dr. Anna KuchmiyPostdoc - AlumniAnna studies the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms controlling normal and malignant T cell development.
Dr. Inge Van De WallePostdoc - AlumniInge was a member of the lab from 2002 until 2016, first as technician, then as PhD student and eventually as post doctoral researcher. During these years, Inge focused on the elucidation of Notch activation during human T cell development.
Dr. Katrien De MulderPostdoc - AlumniDuring her postdoc in our lab from 2011 until 2016, Katrien optimised the gene-editing of human embryonic stem cells to study human hematopoeiesis.
Dr. Els WaegemansPhD Student - AlumniEls studied the role of Notch3 at discrete developmental stages of human T cell development during her PhD in our lab.
