She conducts scientific research with the goal to ameliorate health of musicians together with a team of international researchers. Vera is a member of the Dutch Performing Arts Medicine Association.

Music-making is an athletic endeavour consisting of complex, integrated physical and mental processes. Highly prevalent complaints are pain, tinglings, numbness, or lack of control over muscles. Vera will lecture during the festival on the biology of playing: what is the physical load on the body? What muscles are used during playing and what is the role of  body posture, hand position, etc.? What is the current state of science regarding healthy music making? How to prevent complaints?
