Curtis Noordhof graduated with a degree in Biological Technology from St Lawrence College. He has 17 years of research experience at Queen’s University. During this time, he has been involved in designing and implementing a Health Canada-approved research lab, has inventorship on a patent pending discovery (therapeutic use of bacterial derived proteins) and managed research projects funded by the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation. He previously worked as a research assistant at the Department of Biochemistry and senior research assistant at the Gastrointestinal Disease Research Unit (GIDRU). At GIDRU, Curtis had the crucial role of maintaining and operating the “robo gut” bioreactor.

In 2021, Curtis joined the TIME team to follow his passion for technology and applied science. He saw TIME Core as an opportunity to work with state-of-the-art technology and improve his scientific skills while offering his long-term expertise to the Queen’s community. His extensive experience has contributed to the evolution of his role at TIME, which previously was assisting in managing the Cell Culture and Cytometry labs to directing the new Small Particle Imaging laboratory in 2025.

Outside of the lab, Curtis loves dogs and an appreciator of the country lifestyle. He is a talented and passionate musician that has gained Kingston nights as a professional guitar player and vocalist! His weekends are filled with fun band practices, music composition and family. His sense of humour and positivity at the TIME are contagious, which makes him a perfect team player.
