Kato Ramaekers is a PhD student at the Center for Molecular and Vascular Biology (KU Leuven, Belgium). She joined the Freson lab in October 2021 after finishing her degree in Biomedical Sciences at the KU Leuven. For her PhD project, she is developing a cell based disease model for inherited platelet disorders. The aim is to mimick patient characteristics in the lab to gain more insight in variants in and the function of platelet related genes.
