Charissa Roossien serves as an Assistant Professor at the University of Groningen's Faculty of Science and Engineering, affiliated with the Engineering and Technology Institute Groningen (ENTEG) and the Bio-inspired MEMS and Biomedical Devices research group. Her work bridges engineering and clinical applications with emphasis on biomechanical innovation.
Her research focuses on biomechanical assessment and medical device development, specializing in finite element analysis for mandibular fractures, wearable sensor systems for orthopedic implants, and ergonomic exoskeletons for occupational health. Current projects address critical challenges in implant integration monitoring and surgeon ergonomics through interdisciplinary engineering solutions.
Recent publications reveal a cohesive research trajectory centered on biomechanical validation and sensor integration, with 2025 works spanning mandibular fracture modeling, exoskeleton design, and implant sensor technologies. This output demonstrates her strategic approach to translating computational modeling into clinical and occupational applications.
Dr. Roossien's scientific recognition includes:
- GEC best engineering thesis award (2022)
- GEC best poster award (2018)
She leads significant funded initiatives including a €1.8 million Just Transition Fund project developing a Health Tracker for respiratory/metabolic analysis (total investment €4.5 million) and a Topsector HTSM collaboration on pioneering wearable sensor technologies. Her Bio-inspired MEMS and Biomedical Devices group operates at the intersection of micro-engineering and clinical translation, with active partnerships across orthopedics and occupational health sectors.
