2 CURRICULUM VITAE C.V. JIHANE ROMANOS

3 206 Curriculum Vitae Jihane Romanos was born on 23 rd January 1982 in Haret-Sakhr, Lebanon. She lived in Sao Paulo, Brazil, for two years before moving back to Lebanon where she grew up and went to school at the Soeur des Saint Coeur college in Kfarhbab. After taking the French baccalaureate in 2000, she went to the American University of Beirut where she majored in Biology (BSc). In 2003 Jihane moved back to Brazil, where she followed a three-month training course at the genetics department of the University of Sao Paulo. In 2004, she started her MSc degree in that department, working on the screening of mutations in the OTOF gene in patients with hearing impairment and its relation with auditory neuropathy, under the supervision of Prof. Regina Celia Mingronino-Netto, PhD. She graduated in 2006 with an MSc in Biology, specializing in genetics. In 2007, she started her PhD work at the Department of Genetics, University Medical Center Groningen, the Netherlands, under the supervision of Prof. Cisca Wijmenga, PhD. Her main topic has been the genetics of celiac disease and assessing its diagnostic value. As someone holding both the Brazilian and Lebanese nationalities, Jihane has excellent language skills. She is fluent in Arabic, French, English and Portuguese, and has also learned some basic Dutch.
