Britt van der Swaan

I am a Biomedical Sciences master student at the University of Amsterdam, currently doing my final internship at the University of New South Wales Sydney, Single Molecule Science. The track of the biomedical sciences master I am following, 'Cell Biology and Advanced Microscopy', allows me to specialise in using advanced microscope techniques in diverse biological questions. The lab of Katharina Gaus and Jesse Goyette, where I will be conducting the research, brings expertise of biologists, physicists and engineers together in order to address T-cell immunity related questions using new single molecule microscopes. Under supervision of Katharina and Jesse, the lab will help me to improve my microscopic skills and focusses on teaching you to work independently and to think critical about research, which prepares me very well for doing a PhD.
