  • We are at EANO 2022

    Several of us are present at the European Association for Neuro-Oncology’s annual meeting in Vienna between September 15-18! Our oral presentations: Maxine Gorter will present on cognitive profiles of patients in the stable phase of their disease on Saturday (abstract). Whereas most studies have assessed the prevalence of cognitive deficits and co-occurrence of deficits across…

  • Marloes wins best presentation!

    At the Network Institute’s final presentation session, Marloes (and Anouk in spirit) won the best presentation for her talk on hub diversity in translational neuroscience meetings! This project has been a truly interdisciplinary endeavor with collaborators from Amsterdam UMC (Saskia Peerdeman) and VU University (Joyce Lamerichs, Stéphanie van der Burgt, Jeroen Geurts). Stay tuned for…

  • Marieke Blom

    My name is Marieke, and in August 2022 I started my PhD and joined the MULTINET lab. I studied Human Movement Sciences at the VU and became interested in the field of rehabilitation. I am fascinated by the human movement system. It may seem simple, but it’s actually highly complex. This complexity becomes especially apparent…

  • MULTINET at EANO 2021

    Our team members will present three posters: Vera Belgers on The potential of cannabinoids to improve quality of glioma patients (P12.07) Tina Varkevisser and Jantine Röttgering on Symptom networks in glioma (P11.01) Jantine Röttgering on Symptoms of patients with diffuse glioma during stable disease as a potential target for treatment (P12.02) Come find them during…

  • MULTINET at OHBM 2021

    We are at OHBM 2021! Here are the posters where you could find us: #1643 by Shanna Kulik: Individual modeling of neurophysiological brain activity. Abstract & poster PDF #2297 by Lucas Breedt: Multimodal, multilayer network topology correlates of healthy aging and executive functioning. Abstract & poster PDF. And Linda was involved in the following two…

  • GOALS2 highlighted

    In GOALS2, we will prospectively investigate whether brain activity measured with MEG or EEG could help determine (pseudo)progression in glioma. The work builds on previous work on the interaction between these primary brain tumors and the surrounding brain tissue. Excited to get started later this year! https://www.amsterdamumc.org/research/institutes/cancer-center-amsterdam/news/-tracking-the-progression-of-brain-tumors-with-non-invasive-methods-.htm

  • Lucas Breedt

    While studying psychology, I realized that my interests leaned more towards research than clinical work. During my master’s I therefore decided to do a research internship, and I ended up at the department of Anatomy and Neurosciences of the VUmc, where I looked at the MEG-based brain networks of patients with MS in relation to…

  • Marloes Bet

    I am a second-year Neurosciences Master student, fascinated by the ability of the brain to govern the entire human body, including itself. In my last internship, I used a network approach to integrate structural (anatomical) and functional (activity-related) MRI-data in multiple sclerosis patients with and without cognitive impairment. As I realised the extent to which…

  • MuMoBrain has started!

    In order to celebrate the first included subject for our MultiModal Brain study (which aims to use multilayer graph theory in order to advance our understanding of individual differences in cognitive functioning), we had a little get together with the large team and ate this homemade MuMoBrain-logo cake!
