Dr. Willy M. Baarends

• Willy Baarends received her PhD from Erasmus University Rotterdam in 1995, where she cloned the anti-müllerian hormone type II receptor, and studied its gonadal expression . Subsequently, she worked as a post-doc, in the Erasmus MC Department of Reproduction and Development. At present, she holds a tenured position as associate professor at this department. Her current work focuses on regulation of chromatin structure in relation to DNA repair in the germ line, impacting on fertility and early development.
