The TRIAS project is a collaboration between the University of Twente, Radboud University, Saxion University of Applied Sciences, and 10 partners in the mobility and health sector. Research will be conducted in Field Labs in the healthcare practice of the Connected Care Center of the Isala hospital (Zwolle) and homecare organisation TWB (Roosendaal). In the Field Labs integral mobility and healthcare capacity planning strategies will be tested, aiming to deliver more local and digital healthcare for patient groups with very different characteristics and needs.

This fully-funded PhD project
Integrated mobility and healthcare capacity planning

A planning support tool, incorporating analysis and prediction models, will be developed in close collaboration with project partners. The tool will allow the development of integral mobility and healthcare capacity planning scenarios and impact estimations including health care cost.

This PhD project will be conducted at the Center for Healthcare Operations Improvement and Research, within the Industrial Engineering & Business Information Systems section of the Faculty of Behaviour, Management and Social sciences, University of Twente. The project will be conducted in close collaboration with the TRIAS PhD project on
