My research interests are directly related to my daily practice as a reconstructive surgeon at the plastic surgery department. I did my PhD thesis on the use of the Internal Mammary Artery Perforate flap (IMAP) for reconstructions in the head and neck region after for instance cancer. Among other things, I currently conduct research on the innervation of pectoral muscles. By mapping these nerves we may improve our operations for the reduction of pain after implant-based breast reconstructions. I am also involved in research on salvage oesophageal reconstructions with free jejunal flaps.
