LEGENDARE is a program funded by the ERC Advanced Grant No.20800 500 aimed at using genomics for preventing and managing human skeletal fragility and associated
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.

Vid Prijatelj
PhD Researcher
Vid Prijatelj finished his training as a pharmacist (MPharm) at the University of Ljubljana, Slovenia. During his studies, he had always been interested in the quantitative approach to problem solving, which ultimately led him to pick up programming. This all culminated in his Master’s thesis, where he used in silico tools to guide his in vitro wet-lab experiments.

Vid proclaims himself a thrasher. Although he recognizes Anthrax as one of the big 4, he is a staunch supporter that Exodus should take their place instead
