Marjoleine van der Zwan has completed her assignment and is taking her leave from TNO Health & Work. In her role, she has guided the organisation through its next stage of development and positioning over the past period.

Under her leadership, Health & Work has undergone a significant transformation. The focus has been sharpened on areas such as labour productivity, the application of AI, medicine development and positioning within the health domain.

Marjoleine has made a substantial contribution to this, notably by establishing the new 2026-2029 strategy 'Enhancing Human Performance'.

She also initiated new national and international partnerships, impactful projects and a stronger connection between science, the market and society. With this phase now concluded, a new era is beginning for the unit.
