Geweldig om te zien dat EARA-lid @KU_Leuven zo openstaat voor het bespreken van #dierproeven en hoe het onderzoeken van #angst ten goede komt bij schoolkinderen in België 🇧🇪 👏! @LauraMVercammen @PPW_KULeuven @BiolPsychol @The_EARA

Had a wonderful time teaching kids about my research last week! 🐀

I wrote a thing… about 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆, for the university blog “@KU_Leuven #Blogt”.

Born out of frustration (to be honest), but I also see some silver linings.
