Hayo ter Burg

Hayo ter Burg is a Researcher at Erasmus University Medical Center specializing in living liver donor care and transplantation outcomes. His work bridges surgical medicine and psychological assessment to optimize donor safety and well-being through evidence-based approaches.

His research concentrates on Liver Transplantation, Living Donor Care, and Quality of Life assessment, employing Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses alongside prospective cohort methodologies. Key interests include psychological screening protocols, long-term mental health outcomes, and expanding donor eligibility criteria—particularly through inclusion of older donors—while addressing mortality rates and medical record analysis.

Recent publications reveal a clear trajectory toward evidence synthesis in donor pool expansion, with high-impact studies on older donors (2024) and 5-year psychological follow-up (2025). His work consistently integrates quantitative medical data with psychological treatment frameworks, reflecting interdisciplinary collaboration across transplantation medicine.

He maintains active research partnerships with Leonieke Kranenburg, Andrew Chorley, and Ruud Minnee at Erasmus MC, focusing on collaborative studies in donor care pathways and systematic evidence evaluation.
