Kudos to @AndrewCPeters0n's excellent work with @KarenKrugerPhD and I. Foot and ankle coordinate systems are a real challenge for individual bones. Check out our toolbox that automatically & mathematically assigns patient specific coordinates for 14 bones! #FootAndAnkle #ProudPI

Very proud of our great @amsterdamumc team at #ESMAC2023! @ESMAC_society

A large delegation from The Netherlands at #Esmac2023 @ESMAC_society !

@JJKrzak and I are guest editing a special issue of Gait & Posture on the topic of "Emerging Technologies and Analytical Strategies for Evaluating Foot and Ankle Structure and Function" (RTs appreciated!) tinyurl.com/biomechfoot

Uniek in Nederland: onze 3D-bewegingsanalyse met slimme software! 🙌 Hierdoor zijn geen markers (kleine bolletjes die op de huid) nodig, wat veel tijd bespaart. #revalidatie #bewegen #EmmaKinderziekenhuis youtube.com/watch?v=Ue4Wxu…

@CoenZandvoort @VvBN_nieuws Thanks Coen, congratulations to you as well of course! We should drink a (virtual) beer to celebrate!

Yesterday, I had the honor to receive the Jury and Audience award for the best PhD-thesis 2022 in Human Movement Sciences from the @VvBN_nieuws. I am very proud and truly thankful to all the people involved in my research and in the allocation of this award.

First successful tests with our new markerless setup! Great teamwork of @theiamarkerless, @Vicon, @ProCare and @amsterdamumc, supported by @SteunEmma ! With @AMSmovement @AnnemiekeBU @KWishaupt @WouterSchallig

We (@DieenJaap, Bernadette van Wijk and me) are looking for a PostDoc for the StepUP project, working on the neural and biomechanical mechanisms underlying effects of treadmill training in PD. workingat.vu.nl/ad/post-doc-po…

You are warmly invited for the #rehabilitation symposium 'From research to implementation' on January 19. Veranda | Amstelveenseweg 227 | Amsterdam, 14:00 - 17:30. More information: bit.ly/3ZvQE1V: Register: bit.ly/3QO66CR @amsterdamumc @VUamsterdam @VU_FGB

Good start of the new year, with a paper accepted in @SkeletalRadiol. In this paper we describe the use of weight-bearing CT in individuals with cerebral palsy to assess their foot deformity. Great multi-disciplinary collaboration within @AMSmovement! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

All this work would not have been possible without my supervisors: prof. Jaap Harlaar, prof. Mario Maas (@mmaas_mariom), dr. Josien van den Noort and dr. Marjolein van der Krogt (@Marjoleinvdk). A great example of a multi-disciplinary research team embedded within @AMSmovement

The thesis finalizes with a general discussion in which we reflect on the clinical application of multi-segment foot models, methodological considerations and the future directions of the field of foot and ankle biomechanics during gait.

Curious what my PhD-thesis was about? It can be downloaded here: research.vu.nl/en/publication…. The following provides a very, very brief description of the research we have conducted the last years. #FootBiomechanics
