The Generation R Study is a prospective cohort study from foetal life until young adulthood in a multi-ethnic urban population. The study is designed to
Bone: A rigid body tissue that makes up our body’s skeleton.
Craft: Skill and experience
BoneCraft.nl describes the expertise and experience of the Translational Genomics of the Skeleton team at Erasmus MC. Our group is committed to transforming genomic discoveries into tangible clinical solutions for individuals vulnerable to musculoskeletal disorders and other complex diseases.
Lines of research
Deep (musculo) skeletal phenotyping
Our research enhances musculoskeletal health by analyzing bone density, body composition, muscle strength, and spinal alignment. We improve fracture risk prediction and develop interventions through advanced analytical tools, including machine learning, applied to Big Data from population and patient cohorts, integrating genetics, environment, and lifestyle for better health outcomes.
Translational Genomics
Translational Genomics, where cutting-edge genetic research meets practical healthcare solutions. Our focus includes personalized treatments, genomics-assisted decision-making, and integrating clinical and population-based studies. We aim to improve patient outcomes, enhance disease understanding, and develop targeted interventions.

PhD Researcher
I am Tarsila de Moura Figueiredo. I obtained my diploma in Dentistry from the University of Brasília, Brazil, and specialized in Periodontology at the University of São Paulo, Brazil. Currently, I am finishing a Master’s degree in Health Sciences, Major in Genetic and Molecular Epidemiology, at Erasmus MC, the Netherlands. In September 2023 I started working as a PhD at the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at Erasmus MC.
- Favorite
My hobby is playing the flute. I played in the military band of my school in Brazil for most of my childhood. After university, I have been too busy to play it regularly. But, I still enjoy playing it. I also enjoy watercolor and doing crafts, such as macramé.
