Joery den Hoed

I am a PhD student in the Language and Genetics Department, working on research projects that focus on Rare mutations disrupting speech and language development and Modelling genetic disruptions using cellular systems.

I completed my Bachelor’s degree in Biology at the Radboud University Nijmegen, and continued with a research Master’s degree in Molecular Mechanisms of Disease at the Radboudumc. During my Master’s program, I did my internship projects at the MPI for Psycholinguistics and the Department of Physiology, Anatomy and Genetics at the University of Oxford. 

In 2017, I joined the Language and Genetics Department, studying the role of genes related to speech and language development in stem cell-based neuronal models.
