  • Profile

    I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Amsterdam School of Communication Research, University of Amsterdam, currently working in a project in which we research how to improve communication about gambling care. In a previous role as postdoctoral researcher I investigated how the Dutch cancer screening programs are discussed on (social) media platforms. Prior to that, my dissertation research focussed on improving transparency about political micro-targeting by means of disclosures.
