Since 2007, I have been affiliated with the Netherlands Cancer Institute as head of the division of Surgical Oncological Disciplines (HOD). My clinical expertise is mainly in the field of liver surgery and colorectal surgery.
In this field, several national and international studies are directed by me.
The research also focuses on the development and introduction of new image-guided treatment methods. This can significantly improve the quality of the surgical procedure, while reducing the risks.

I do this from my position as Professor of Oncology and Biomedical Imaging at the University of Twente. I have been working as an oncological surgeon since 1994, my training for this I followed at the Hammersmith Hospital and King's College Hospital, both in London.
