Teaching

At the Toulouse School of Economics, I taught sociology in the Introduction to Quantitative Social Science course in the Economics bachelors progam and tutorials on Graph Analysis in the masters Econometrics and Statistics, and Data Science for Social Sciences in 2024 and 2025.

In 2022 and 2023, I taught at the ‘BIGSSS Summer School in Computational Social Science’

In Karlsruhe, I co-taught the course ‘Sozialforschung: Wann und warum entsteht Meinungspolarisierung?’.

At the University of Groningen I have been involved in various courses, such as ‘Gemeente en haar burgers’ in the sociology bachelor (2017-2019), and ‘Theorizing Change’ in the social science research master program (2020). Between 2019 and 2021 I have lectured and coordinated the course ‘Opinion Dynamics on the INternet’ (ODIN) in the minor program ‘Data Wise: Data Science in Society’ and supervised a handful of projects in the collaborative data project of that same program.


Research visits & internships

In 2020, I visited prof. Duncan J. Watts & the Computational Social Science group at the Department of Computer and Information Sciences at UPenn (Philadelphia PA).

As an undergrad I have done two internships, at the Netherlands Institute for Social Research (Sociaal en Cultureel Planbureau - SCP, The Hague) and at the knowledge centre of the mental healthcare provider ‘Trajectum’ (Zwolle, the Netherlands)
