Strength
"Our strength lies in the connection. We are a group of people from various bodies who put aside the interests of themselves and their organizations to reach a higher goal."
Ambition
"I see it as one of our ambitions to make the various fields work together even more. Right now, the focus is mostly on science. We will become stronger if we start involving practitioners more. And not just the medical practice, but the whole team around an athlete: physiotherapists, dieticians, strength trainers, psychologists and movement scientists."
Collaborate
"The collaboration happens back and forth. I get requests to participate in studies. And when I get issues from the field, I can link people to the scientists within ACHSS."
Pride
"I am proud that the various parties have found each other in the formation of this institute and that I am part of it, albeit in a modest role."
Future
"In the coming years, the collaborations could be expanded. Hopefully, there is more room for consultation in a physical environment, and the lines are shorter. This will allow us to strengthen the connection between science and practice further and get to results faster."
