“I think it is important to try to improve patient’s lives.” – Remco Koster, PRA Health Sciences

Remco Koster has continuously worked to improve patient care, starting in the transplant setting.  While in the hospital, Remco asked the questions: What is the patient background? What is the struggle?  What is the burden for the patients and blood sampling?  Now, Remco focuses on microsampling technologies, and feels that he can contribute to patient care though this.  Often, hospitals do not have the resources to work on new techniques for patients.  Remco understands the challenges in a hospital environment and understands that technology still needs to be improved.  There is always room for improvement, and we need to keep the long-term goal in mind – improving patient care.
