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

[Marjolein van der Krogt @Marjoleinvdk]

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

[Karen Kruger @KarenKrugerPhD]

@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!)

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

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

[Wouter Schallig @WouterSchallig]

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.

[Marjolein van der Krogt @Marjoleinvdk]

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

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. https://t.co/IAfiuzY2SF

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!

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

[Wouter Schallig @WouterSchallig]

Curious what my PhD-thesis was about? It can be downloaded here: https://t.co/RlqDlhRWsV. The following provides a very, very brief description of the research we have conducted the last years. #FootBiomechanics

[Wouter Schallig @WouterSchallig]

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.
