Collaboration

The Generation R Study is conducted by several research groups from the Erasmus Medical Center in close collaboration with the Erasmus University Rotterdam, the municipality of Rotterdam and the Municipal Health Service Rotterdam area. Since the datacollection is still ongoing and growing, the number of collaborating research groups in and outside the Netherlands is expected to increase in the coming years.

Requests for collaboration

The study has an open policy in regard to collaboration with other research groups. Requests for collaboration should primarily be pointed to Prof.dr. Vincent Jaddoe (v.jaddoe@erasmusmc.nl). These requests are discussed in the Generation R Study Management Team regarding their study aims, overlap with ongoing studies, logistic consequences and financial contributions. After approval of the project by the Generation R Study Management Team and the Medical Ethical Committee of the Erasmus Medical Center, the collaborative research project is embedded in one of the five research areas supervised by the specific principal investigator.
