Prof dr ir Herman van der Kooij (UT, Biomechatronics and Rehabilitation Technology) develops rehabilitation robots, bionic prosthetics and exoskeletons that support patients in walking. Talk show host: Linda Hiemstra BA (Saxion University of Applied Sciences). Be sure to step by this Science Café! In collaboration with KIVI Students Twente and Paradoks.
