Dr. Marianne Nieuwenhuis is professor by special oppointment of Functional Recovery and Quality of Life after Burns within the research group Healthy Ageing, Allied Health Care and Nursing. She investigates factors that promote or hinder recovery and quality of life of burns survivors.
The professorship was established by the Dutch Burns Foundation and focuses on two interrelated themes: developing methods to optimise recovery, functioning and quality of life after a burn injury, including (where necessary) the development of measurement tools to quantify this, and improving interprofessional collaboration. The practice-oriented scientific research within this professorship is carried out in close cooperation with, among others, the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG).
Nieuwenhuis combines her work as professor with her role as research coordinator at the Burns Centre of the Martini Hospital and as Head of Clinical Research at the Association of Cooperating Burn Centres in the Netherlands. In addition to research, she enjoys supervising (PhD) students, collaborating with healthcare professionals and researchers from various disciplines, and teaching people with lived experience, for example, in Evidence Based Practice.
