272 Acknowledgements For all Sanquin employees whom I have had conversations with during lunches, coffee/tea breaks, walks, and random (often, very random) drop-ins, thank you for your trust and sharing your thoughts with me. For brilliant Thomas, who created the illustrations for this thesis, and for dearest Dana: thank you for always being my family and keeping me rooted and grounded. Finally, for my husband Rick, who has been my rock and provided all-around help through the years. You made this challenging journey possible by taking care of our boys and providing time and space to write and attend congresses. (Thank you also, Theo and Josien!) This season of our lives is over. The best is yet to come.
