The YAG invites you to their next ECR lunch on May 28th! The topic of this months is 'Social Safety project at UG’ with project leader Anne-Marie Petter and YAG member Lisa Herzog💡 More information: rug.nl/research/young…

Here is a nice article about the research of one of our new YAG members Daphne Brandenburg! After summer, all our new members will introduce themselves and their research with short video clips about their research.

The YAG and PhD/i symposium 'Presenting Interdisciplinary Research' is ongoing! After the opening by Konstantin Mireau and our Rector Jacquelien Scherpen, new connections in the nice environment Rölingbuilding will certainly be made this afternoon!

'The world has problems, not disciplines'. A big 👏 for the brave PhD students that cross disciplinary boundaries and presented their research. Thanks to the organizers: Konstantin Mierau, Liesbeth Volbedaand Michelle Bruijn, David Cheruiyot, Alberto Godioli, and Naomi de Ruiter

Looking forward to presenting my research at Cafe de Toeter in Groningen next Wednesday June 5th in the Young Academy Groningen pub lecture series. Feel free to come! rug.nl/research/young…

Looking forward to meet you at the last PUB lecture before summer! 🏠 Cafe de Toeter, Groningen 🗓️ Wed 5 June from 16.45 Enjoy free drinks & the lectures of - mvugt, What can the brains of Tibetan Monks teach us about emotions? - R Scholtens, Across the donut verse?

Though my term as chair (and membership) of Young Academy Groningen ends only in September, today I chaired my last YAG members meeting. In what must be the most official meeting room we've ever had. 😊

The first Young Academy Groningen pub lecture by mvugt has started! What we can learn from Tibetan monks minds about emotions? Mindblowing eh?! 🤯🤯🤯 You still have time to join, run fast!!

Last but not least, we go across the donutverse with Robbert Scholtens! 🍩🪐

Fantastisch nieuws! Casper van der Kooi (Science LinX-Faculty of Science and Engineering-UG) ontvangt de Heineken Young Scientists Award 🙌 Van harte, Casper! Van der Kooi bestudeert hoe bloemen en dieren aan hun kleuren komen en hoe ze die gebruiken om bestuivers of partners aan te trekken 🦋 👇 rug.nl/fse/news/award…

Congratulations to our fellow Young Academy Groningen member Casper van der Kooi

Congratulations!! 🥳

Another Young Academy Groningen mystery lab tour: Riemer Vegter showed Naomi de Ruiter Michelle Bruijn and myself around in his labs. Very impressive and inspiring. And the extra guest I brought (an even younger one) did well on the wheelchair test.
