The Department of Internal Medicine is a large department with nine research laboratories. Our main mission is to pioneer innovation in research, education and care by bringing science to the patient. To achieve this objective, we aim to continually develop new technologies and innovations within the department in research, education and care.

Within the section Endocrinology, the research group "Metabolism and Reproduction" focuses on aspects of sex differences in metabolism in health and disease. We approach our research questions using genetic, physiological and cellular techniques, both in animal models and in humans. An important principle that guides our efforts is the possibility to apply our findings to the clinic and, vice versa, paying attention to questions that arise in the clinic when treating patients. You will be working in a multi-disciplinary dynamic environment. For this project, you will collaborate closely with researchers of the team of Prof. J. van Meurs.
