I'm a senior researcher at the Centre for Science and Technology Studies (CWTS), Leiden University and a member of the Science and Evaluation Studies group led by Sarah de Rijcke. I have a background in the sociology of culture but migrated to science and technology studies and sociology of science after my PhD (University of Amsterdam, 2015).

My current work concerns the governance of science, specifically the epistemic effects of research evaluation and research funding. I am also exploring science in the Anthropocene, specifically sustainability in the laboratory sciences through the introduction of LEAF and the 'Do No Significant Harm'-principle.

I collaborate with colleagues at CWTS in different international projects such as R-Quest, led by Liv Langfeldt and Siri Borlaug, and Gender, Citizenship and Academic Power, with Agnete Vabø and Cathrine Egeland - both funded by the Research Council of Norway.
