Levi specialises in internal medicine and his work focuses, among other things, on hemostasis, thrombosis and vascular medicine. He has published more than 750 articles in international scientific journals and holds various positions in national and international organisations in the field of research and health care. In addition to his administrative work at the NWO, he is now resuming part-time work in patient care and research within the Amsterdam UMC.
‘It is fantastic that I can continue to combine my administrative tasks with practical work in patient care and research. I am also happy that I can realise this in the familiar surroundings of the UvA and the Amsterdam UMC, with which I have always remained connected,’ says Levi.
‘Marcel Levi's career as a clinician, scientist, teacher and administrator is genuinely impressive,’ says Hans Romijn, chair of the board of the Amsterdam UMC. ‘Marcel not only has excellent scientific qualities and great enthusiasm for healthcare, he is also a talented administrator. He played a leading role in the process of joining the AMC and the VUmc, which eventually led to Amsterdam UMC.’
