Current research project

Currently, I am conducting a multicenter randomized controlled trial in cooperation with the Amphia Hospital, Breda and the Erasmus MC. In this study, we aim to find out the best postoperative rehabilitation modality for patients with (posttraumatic) elbow stiffness. In addition to this project, I focus on developing a 4D flexion-extension model of the elbow and a growth model of the forearm.
