Riemer Vegter
Riemer Vegter

Riemer Vegter is universitair docent Bewegingswetenschappen aan het UMCG. Hij coördineert het paralympische onderzoekslaboratorium, waar de biomechanica en fysiologie van rolstoelsporters getest worden. Vegter is in maart 2022 benoemd tot lid van de Young Academy Groningen (YAG). Leden van de YAG zijn ambitieuze onderzoekers van de RUG of het UMCG die met hun werk een maatschappelijke impact hebben en bijdragen aan de wetenschap. Met deze benoeming hoopt Vegter nieuw publiek te bereiken en ze te interesseren in de wetenschap. In 2019 ontving Vegter een ZonMw subsidie voor zijn onderzoeksproject "WheelPower: wheelchair sports and data science push it to the limit", waarin hij onderzoek doet naar het optimaliseren van het vermogen van atleten in een rolstoel om hun wedstrijdprestatie te verbeteren. Uit een eerder onderzoek concludeerde de bewegingswetenschapper al dat rolstoelgebruikers met minder inspanning hun rolstoel kunnen leren te gebruiken door hun aandrijftechniek te verbeteren. Hierom pleitte Vegter voor het analyseren van de techniek van beginnende rolstoelgebruikers om overbelasting te voorkomen en prestaties te stimuleren.
