Profile

Roos Budts graduated in Biomedical Sciences from KU Leuven, Belgium. She completed her Master’s thesis at the Rega Institute, where her work focused on understanding how Evasins affect neutrophil migration and activation, contributing to deeper insights into immune system behavior.

Currently,Roos is pursuing her Ph.D. at KU Leuven, under the guidance of esteemed professors Prof. Dr. Reinhilde Jacobs, Prof. Dr. Sofie Struyf, and Dr. Mostafa EzEldeen. Her doctoral research aims to develop multi-material scaffolds with immunomodulatory properties. This novel tissue engineering strategy is designed to treat dental tissue loss in children and adolescents, offering a promising approach that combines biocompatible materials with immune system modulation.
