E.J.C. van den Brink is a Researcher in the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at Utrecht University, specializing within the Department of Clinical Sciences and specifically the Surgery of Companion Animals group. Her work bridges clinical veterinary practice with advanced manufacturing technologies.
Her research focuses on veterinary oncological surgery, biomedical engineering, and reconstructive techniques for companion animals. She applies additive manufacturing (3D printing) to create titanium implants for skull reconstruction in dogs post-tumor excision.
In 2023, van den Brink co-authored a peer-reviewed article in VCOT Open titled Additive Manufacturing of Titanium Implants for Skull Reconstruction in 2 Dogs after Bone Tumour Excision. This work contributes to the fields of small animal surgical oncology, biomaterials, and precision veterinary medicine, demonstrating the application of innovative manufacturing methods in clinical veterinary settings.
