I remember every moment of that day. And every year, I take time to remember those who were lost and how things forever changed.

Today in @ad.nl: (1) there is no scientific evidence that social media bans are effective; (2) they violate young people's rights; & (3) can be harmful. Digital overuse and misuse is a problem. But we need science, not hype, to guide these discussions.

My work is typically a whirlwind. Running a graduate school while being a researcher and mentor is a delicate balance. #academia

I’ve started booking 4 writing weeks per year to help me have focused research time. Productivity, nature walks, strong coffee. Good for the mind and the soul.

Anyone else reached the "this is 2025 problem" vibe? Or it is just me?

Today, I - along with 20,000 of my closest friends - demonstrated against the draconian budget cuts proposed by the Dutch government.

Here’s hoping that we were heard - our future depends on it.

In 2 weeks, I will be in California speaking to YouTube. I want to stimulate conversations on “what to do”. Aka what’s good 😊 for the digital society we are in (and the research we need).

Comment / DM ⬇️ your ideas on how we can improve the digital world for young people.

Today, our voices were raised - fighting against these disastrous budget cuts - with unis across the country walking away from their offices.

Next: we will come together on 25 November to raise our voices even more.

Spent the past few days at Google Munich setting the groundwork for my new collaborative project - p13n competence.

Focus: Establishing principles to make AI-personalization more tangible for (aged 13+) users via competence-by-design features.

Cool stuff.

Attending #ica24? Check out the preconference "Amplifying Youth Participation" (hosted by Western Sydney where I'll be a visiting fellow). Smart and creative work, great people.

D/L is 13 June.

See you on the Gold Coast!

Speaking at GSEC today on how we can support a safe and healthy experience for young people on YouTube. Nice opportunity to bridge research with practice (and in a city with excellent whiskey 🥃)!

Not entirely wrong.😂
