Welcome to my website. I'm Niels Waterval, a researcher and gait analyst at the department of rehabilitation medicine of the Amsterdam UMC, the Netherlands. My goal is to improve orthotic care by enabling the provision of the best orthotic device to each individual.

As a human movement scientist, I use my biomechanical knowledge to adress this clinical problem. In my research I combine 3D gait analysis, state of the art predictive simulations of walking and innovative engineering to develop a stiffness-variable orthosis.
