Acknowledgement To produce a work such as the present PhD thesis the help and support of many people is necessary. Although it is not possible to include everybody by name, I would like to specifically thank a number of persons without whom I would have been unable to carry out the work which the present book represents. Above all, I would like to thank Dr. Wia Timmerman, Principle Investigator of the TI Pharma project who has supported me throughout my thesis with her patience and knowledge whilst allowing me the room to work in my own way. One simply could not wish for a better mentor. Equally important to me was the support and guidance provided by Dr. Marten van Wijhe. Marten, your advice and unsurpassed clinical knowledge brought unique perspectives to my research, enriching it greatly. Your encouragement and enthusiasm were important for the completion of this project. I would like to offer my special thanks to Prof. Michel Struys and Prof. Gerbrand Groen in supporting my thesis as promoter. I like to thank Marten Harbers for the great times we have shared throughout this project. I will miss the thought-provoking discussions, the many trips to conferences and your sharp brain. I am particular grateful for the support and encouragement of the wonderful TI Pharma project T5-108 group. Not only has it been a pleasure to work and study with you but your suggestions, comments, and criticisms along the way have been most helpful. In particular, Dr. Andrea Houghton, Prof. Hans den Boer, Dr. Ruud Kortekaas, Dr. Andre van Vliet, Bianca Pijl, Petra Koole, Anneke Kuil and Dr. Farooq Said have all provided assistance and advice that made this work easier and more enjoyable. Not directly involved in the thesis were Zai Sutan and Aribert Bardehle but their support and encouragement was vital to me. Little do you know what this mean to me – thank you so much! Finally, I would like to thank my good friends Niklas Schülert, Iris Brecklinghaus, Sabine Deichman and Olaf Woodroffe for their extraordinary support.
