With the earlier possible transport available, I made it back to Groningen. In half an hour, I am teaching a lecture on Self-Construals and Identities - mostly covering the work of my advisor. Last night’s talk was a great refresher

Yesterday, I attended the inaugural lecture of my PhD advisor, Prof. Dr. Vivian Vignoles at Sussex, and I had the honour and privilege to introduce him. Let me celebrate this important day with a few remarks.

I’m not in France only to enjoy the baguettes, fromage or du vin, but also to do my fieldwork, maintain collaborations, and share my research findings with others. I had a great time today at Nanterre thanks to @cbadea.bsky.social after having lunch at the VIP salon and petting sheep eating grass :)

It’s a great pleasure to have @laurentlicata.bsky.social visit us at our stream and present his work on collective memory and its current implications. Looking forward to engaging with his research and look at it through a social identity lens

In the politics stream of the social identity summer school, we discuss the BBC prison study. We thought why not just go to our neighbour teacher and ask our questions directly. We did. @alexhaslam.bsky.social kindly joined us and answered students questions.

Heading to Leuven to teach the Social Identity Summer School tomorrow - and in the meantime, making jams from yummy plums. Traveling a lot doesn’t mean I should ignore my domestic duties😀

The viva is over. Dr Collins did such a fantastic job. It was a pleasure to have this long intellectual discussion with her and other examiners. These photos are 9 years apart. Less beard, more hair since then. Finally made it back to the Netherlands after 2.5 weeks.
