Biography

Geert Kops is a group leader at the Hubrecht Institute and a Full Professor of Molecular Tumor Cell Biology at the University Medical Center Utrecht. He also serves as the scientific director of the Oncode Institute. His research group is focused on understanding the processes that ensure proper chromosome segregation during cell division.

The Kops group investigates the signaling networks that regulate chromosome segregation, the cell division process, and the role of chromosomal instability in cancer.
