Work I graduated from the University of Groningen, the Netherlands in 1988, studying hydration of biomolecules with quantum mechanical and Monte Carlo simulation techniques. After that I moved to the University of Utrecht, where I worked on determining protein structures using NMR and molecular dynamics simulations, and on methods for assessing the quality of NMR-derived structures. For two years I worked part-time as a staff member for the Consumer and Biotechnology Foundation in the Hague. In 1998 I joined the Dutch pharmaceutical company Organon, now part of MSD (Merck). In the bioinformatics group I was responsible for database management and for technology development. In the last couple of years I have been involved in the development of a text-mining tool, in the application of the Entelos PhysioLab® simulation platform in Rheumatoid Arthritis research, and in analysis of micro-array gene expression data. I am also a member of the Executive Committee of the Netherlands Metabolomics Centre.
My name - like that of my grandfather - is Johan Antoon Christoffel Rullmann. I have lived in Vlagtwedde, īt Zandt, Hallum, Groningen and Utrecht, the Netherlands. I completed a four-year training as a gestalt counsellor, learning a lot about human interactions. I vividly remember an experiential gestalt workshop in Taganrog, Russia, which I had the opportunity to facilitate. It was great fun and a beautiful experience to connect to people whom I had not met before and did not meet again after the workshop, and interact in meaningful and emotionally rich ways. Also I have completed a Lightwork training, learning to work with the human energy field. This training gave me confidence to trust my intuition, as well as a greater sense of the "unseen". I love to dance: Biodanza, the dance of life, connection and emotion. The Five Rhythms, meditation in movement. And of course there is music, much more than one can ever enjoy or learn to appreciate. Some of my favourites are Gogol Bordello, Beirut and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan.
