Exciting news: the TIDE study, my study about premenstrual exacerbation (PME) of depression, has started!
In the coming year, we aim to include 60 participants with depression and a regular menstrual cycle to examine the prevalence and trajectories of PME in depression. 📈👩🏼‍🏫

A very fun discovery today: while ago I contributed to a local newspaper article about contraceptive choices, and apparently the newspaper printed the article with its (gorgeous) cover art as part of a promo on an Amsterdam tram! Love to see it @parool.nl

We (a group of Dutch researchers) wrote an opinion article calling to protect academic freedom and research on sex and gender. The article was co-signed by over 300 academics, healthcare professionals and stakeholders, and it was published in a national newspaper (de Volkskrant) today!

In my PhD, I studied the effects of oral contraceptives and gender-affirming hormone therapy on sleep, insomnia, and depression.

In June I defended my thesis! You can find the online version of my thesis here: research.vu.nl/en/publicati...
