Alexandra Breukel leaving ENMC

After 10 years of working with much pleasure and dedication as ENMC Managing Director (MD), it is time for a new adventure! I will be leaving the ENMC as of 1 October 2023 and take time off to find a new chapter in my career.

Herewith I would like to thank you all for a wonderful time working together to improve lives of people affected by a neuromuscular condition. The ENMC is very close to my heart, but it is in the good hands of the ENMC board, Ana Ferreiro, Patricia van Dongen and Wilma Hinloopen, who will be your contact persons (enmc@enmc.org).

All the best!

Alexandra Breukel
