Astrid Kramer studied Health Sciences at the VU University Amsterdam (BSc) and University of Twente (MSc). During her bachelor’s, she developed an interest in health technologies and during her master’s more specifically in health technology assessments and economic modelling. Subsequently, she started as a PhD student on the COIN-project. In the COIN-project, all research groups in the Netherlands collaborate to take the essential steps to implement analysis of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in clinical practice in the Netherlands in a controlled, cost-effective and validated manner. Astrid will focus on the early health technology assessment in the COIN-project.
