Rob studied astrophysics at Leiden University. He designed detectors for nuclear physics experiments in Amsterdam and in the US before moving to X-ray astrophysics in Utrecht. After teaching high-school Mathematics, Rob moved to astroparticle physics as liaison officer in an ERANET at Nikhef. When Nikhef was selected as EGI's local host, Rob jumped from "I can lend a hand" to full time proposal activities in just two months. Rob is at EGI from day one.
