Inge Zijdewind’s research focuses on fatigue and fatigability in healthy individuals and in various patient groups. Fatigue refers to the subjective feeling of tiredness, whereas fatigability describes a decline in performance. Inge Zijdewind investigates whether fatigue and fatigability are related to interactions between the central nervous system and the immune system. She studies this by having participants perform tasks and then measuring physiological changes in, for example, the muscles and the brain.
