Het hoofdthema van mijn onderzoek is vaatziekten, in het bijzonder die van de hersenen.
Antitrombotica
Ik was en ben betrokken bij diverse onderzoeken over de secundaire preventie met geneesmiddelen die de stolling van het bloed beïnvloeden (antitrombotica). Een van deze onderzoeken (SPIRIT) moest voortijdig worden beëindigd in verband met een hoge frequentie van ernstige bloedingen. Deze onverwachte bevinding is een belangrijke bron van inspiratie voor mijn huidige onderzoek: waarom hadden deze patiënten met een klein herseninfarct van arteriële oorsprong een verhoogde neiging tot bloeden in vergelijking tot patiënten met andere vaatziekten? En kunnen we dergelijke patiënten identificeren en die informatie gebruiken om de behandeling met antitrombotica te optimaliseren om zo nieuwe ischemische complicaties te voorkomen? Ik ga ervan uit dat mijn gecombineerde aanstelling bij het Leidse UMC en het UMC Utrecht vruchtbaar zal blijken te zijn bij het beantwoorden van deze vragen.
Op 3 februari 2006 sprak hij zijn oratie uit, getiteld: 'Hoofdzaken'.
