Noortje de Haan is assistant professor at the Center for Proteomics and Metabolomics (CPM) at the LUMC, leading the Tissue Glycomics group. Her passion is in the development of analytical, mass spectrometry-based techniques to study glycans and proteins in human tissues and revealing the role of glycans in human (patho)physiology. The core technologies in her lab for these purposes are nano liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (nanoLC-MS) and mass spectrometry imaging (MSI). During her PhD research (cum laude, 2019) in the lab of Prof. Manfred Wuhrer, Noortje worked on mass spectrometry method development and clinical glycomics with a core focus on antibody glycosylation in inflammatory diseases. She expanded her expertise in tissue glycomics during a three year postdoc in the glycobiology lab of Prof. Hans Wandall at the University of Copenhagen (Denmark), where she got trained in the biochemical and genetic aspects of glycosylation and advanced mass spectrometry for glycomics and glycoproteomics.
