Currently Helen Anema, neuropsychologist/ physiotherapist, is working as a Postdoctoral researcher at the Dijkerman lab in the area of “attentional mechanisms in chronic pain patients”, together with Dr. Judy Veldhuijzen of the UMCU and the research group of Prof. Dr. Geert Crombez, Ghent University. She is additionally involved in research that targets tactile impairments and its functional rehabilitation after a cerebrovascular accident (CVA); a topic she started working on during her PhD position.
