His work for the standardization group consisted in formally verifying the designs of the transmission protocols between medical devices that send patient-related physiological data and other devices or computer systems that receive those data. Currently, he is working with emeritus professor Herman Berendsen and other specialists from his group on molecular dynamics algorithms, tools and applications.
