Biography
Dr. Marjolein MJ Caron is currently working as an assistant professor at the Maastricht University in the Laboratory for Experimental Orthopedics headed by Tim Welting. Her fundamental/ translational research focuses around the cartilaginous phase of endochondral ossification. This phase is tightly regulated in which many factors regulate the discrete stages of the cellular differentiation program. Understanding the mechanisms of cell commitment and further differentiation into the chondrogenic lineage is of great importance to optimize (progenitor) cell-based cartilage regenerative medicine techniques as well as understanding pathologies such as osteoarthritis (OA).
