- Biography
Dr. Tjakko van Ham obtained his PhD in genetics (C. elegans functional genomics) in 2009 at the University Medical Centre (UMC), Groningen, Netherlands. After postdoctoral training at Mass General Hospital, Boston, USA and UMC Groningen in genetic brain disorders using zebrafish as a model, he became a group leader at the Erasmus Medical Centre, Rotterdam, Netherlands in 2014. Currently, he is an associate professor leading a translational research laboratory focusing on implementation of new diagnostic approaches in genetic disorders. A main interest is RNA sequencing in undiagnosed genetic disease, which proved highly effective and complementary to genome analysis to assist in diagnosing diverse genetic disorders.
