Stress: what causes it and how do you get rid of it? Watch live to Praise of Medicine

Our living conditions determine whether and how much stress we have. However, everyone experiences stress differently. Three top researchers from Erasmus MC will answer important questions about stress in the ‘Praise of Medicine’ programme.

Witte Hoogendijk, Liesbeth van Rossum and Steven Kushner are affiliated with Erasmus MC and conduct research into stress and stress-related disorders.

Witte Hoogendijk explains the evolutionary origin of stress and how that origin helps us to deal with stress better. Liesbeth van Rossum knows all about the effects of stress on our bodies and Steven Kushner concludes by zooming in on the effects of stress on our mental well-being.
