Prof.dr.ir. Monique Tabak is full professor at the University of Twente with a background in Biomedical Engineering (cum laude). She is leading the research track on personalized eHealth technology for complex chronic conditions. She is an eHealth expert, focusing on the question: how can eHealth technology contribute to tailor-made care in daily life?Ā 

Monique has a strong (European) network and participated in >20 (inter)national research and innovation projectsĀ  on eHealth (e.g. IS-ACTIVE (AAL), InLife (H2020), MAGGY (NWO), LoaD (NWA-ORC)) in major coordinating roles as project manager or WP leader, as well as principal investigator and in close collaboration with care centres.


She is currently leading the large-scale European RE-SAMPLE project in which a multidisciplinary consortium is developing revolutionary tailor-made care for people with COPD and comorbidities using real-world data monitoring and AI. She is also PI and WP leader in the LoAD project (NWA-ORC) in which she develops personalized feedback and coaching strategies for people with osteoarthritis based on a multi-modal sensing approach and recommender systems for tailoring.

She is a teacher in eHealth technology for the educational programmes of Biomedical Engineering, Technical Medicine and Health Science.

Prof.dr.ir. Monique Tabak is full professor at the University of Twente with a background in Biomedical Engineering (cum laude), leading the research track on personalized eHealth technology for complex chronic conditions. She is an eHealth expert, focusing on the question: how can eHealth technology contribute to tailor-made care in daily life?Ā Her research is about tailoring eHealth interventions by a shared-decision making approach between technology, healthcare provider and patient, and supporting self-management in daily life for persons with complex chronic conditions.Ā 

She is currently leading the large-scale European RE-SAMPLE project in which a multidisciplinary consortium is developing revolutionary tailor-made care for people with COPD and comorbidities using real-world data monitoring and AI. She is also PI and WP leader in the LoAD project (NWA-ORC) in which she develops personalized feedback and coaching strategies for people with osteoarthritis based on a multi-modal sensing approach and recommender systems for tailoring.

Her expertise includes:Ā telemonitoring, shared decision making, decision support systems, adaptive tailored coaching, self-management, complex chronic (lung) conditions.Ā
