Dominique and Mélise Sickmann: Two Sisters with One Mission at Viruskenner

Two sisters who aren’t just experts in their own fields, but who are also working together to help you learn everything about viruses and infectious diseases. Meet Dominique and Mélise Sickmann, your Viruskenner coaches!

Dominique Sickmann
Dominique is studying psychology and focuses on how people think and feel. Alongside coaching Viruskenner teams, she’s also stepping into the role of content creator for the Viruskenner website (yep, those cool articles and updates will soon be coming from her!). She believes it’s important not only to understand how viruses work, but also how they affect society. She’ll help you think outside the box and come up with smart, innovative solutions. No boring lessons here—just creative ideas and fresh insights!

Mélise Sickmann
Mélise works as a doctor at the Rode kruis Ziekenhuis in Beverwijk. She helps patients with surgical procedures and burn treatments, and she sees firsthand how infectious diseases can affect people. From Mélise, you’ll learn everything about the medical side of infections, like which treatments work and why hygiene is so crucial.
