For her last years internship, she worked fulltime at RadboudUMC and TNO to develop clinical, technical and scientific skills. This research focussed on developing new wearable pressure sensors for pressure ulcers prevention. After obtaining her master’s degree at the end of 2018, she started her PhD research project early 2019 at the ILD Center of Excellence, at the St. Antonius Hospital (Nieuwegein) under supervision of prof. dr. Jan Grutters, dr. Marcel Veltkamp and dr. O.J.M. Vogels. During her PhD she specialized in diagnosing sarcoidosis-associated small fiber neuropathy with thermal threshold testing, skin biopsies, corneal confocal microscopy, Sudoscan, water immersion skin wrinkling and, heart rate and blood pressure variability during postural change. The research was supported by ZonMW-TopZorg St Antonius Care grant 842002003 and the local Innovation Fund of St. Antonius Hospital. During her PhD, she was chair of the Technical Innovations in Medicine (TIiM) Conference Commission, with which she organized 2 conferences.
