"Our work as Erasmus MC employees is very meaningful. Whatever department you work in, or whatever your position, everyone contributes to the mission of this leading UMC, where we stand for a healthy population and excellent care for our patients through research and education. And in doing so, we don't suffer from a lack of ambition.
Not only are we in the center of a beautiful city, we also think and work from a great sense of responsibility for our role in society, the region and far beyond. I feel energized by this. We have a complex, but beautiful task, and that makes my day as a director constantly challenging and interesting."
