de bio van io

Hello people! I am io, 23 years old and I am French/American/Belgian.

I went to school in the USA and in France. I got my bachelors degree from the University of Utrecht in 2008 in molecular biology and environmental sciences. I did my bachelors thesis in the Philippines, measuring the anoxia of one of the small oceans there. I didn't quite know what I wanted to study for my Masters back then (although I did figure out that it was neither molecular biology nor earth sciences), so I took seven months off to work at the Laboratory of histology, neuroanatomy and neuropathology investigating Alzheimer's disease. This internship motivated me and interested me so much that I decided during that time to pursue studies in the field of neuroscience. After UvA I will most definetely do a PhD.

I enjoy a variety of things besides neuroscience :), such as playing the violin and the guitar, writing songs and poems, dancing, sailing, music festivals, travelling...
