Dr S. (Sandra) Brouwer: ‘Collaboration with insurance medicine emerged bottom-up’

When conducting research in the field of labour and insurance medicine, you come into contact with company doctors, labour experts and insurance physicians. Sometimes partnerships come about in surprising ways, for example with the field of insurance medicine.

‘Our collaboration with the field of insurance medicine emerged in a bottom-up fashion, based on an awareness that we wanted to work together, rather than being introduced top-down on the basis of a fixed plan’, says scientist Dr. S. (Sandra) Brouwer . And that is where the strength of this unique, long-term partnership lies.
