Romy de Laat-Kremers started her career at Synapse Research Institute as a PhD student in 2011. Since 2016, she works as an artificial intelligence specialist in the field of thrombosis and hemostasis. She studies the development of prediction models for thrombosis and bleeding, and other potential applications of artificial intelligence in the field of coagulation and diagnostics. Additionally, she designs new thrombin generation (TG)-based assays, works on clinical standardization of TG and TG-based assays, and investigates the clinical potential of the TG-derived thrombin dynamics method. Moreover, she manages and analyzes databases from study cohorts from large international collaborations. Furthermore, she provides support for questions and challenges in the field of thrombin generation testing and works as a medical writer for scientific papers and administrative documents, such as state-of-the-art documents for the In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation.
Romy graduated from Maastricht University in 2011, where she obtained a bachelor’s degree in Molecular Life Sciences, followed by a master’s degree in Cardiovascular Biology and Medicine, with a specialization in thrombosis and hemostasis research. Hereafter, she started her PhD project entitled “Thrombin Dynamics”, which focused on the computational modeling of thrombin generation. In 2016, she received a Kootstra grant to continue her PhD research as a post-doctoral fellow at Synapse Research Institute. Later that year, she joined the Synapse Research Scientific Staff to start her own research program on the use of artificial intelligence in thrombosis and hemostasis.
