Why are not all children equally good at creative tasks? Working memory profile seems to explain some differences. Lisette Hornstra, Evelyn Kroesbergen and myself wrote an article about this. Using the link below you can read this article for free.

Kip Thorne was overcome with emotion while looking at an image of Albert Einstein.

A century ago, Einstein predicted the existence of gravitational waves. In 2015, Thorne and a collaboration of more than 1,000 physicists finally observed gravitational waves for the first time.

New year, new job! With the end of my PhD near, I am starting a new job at the University of Amsterdam as an assistant professor. I am looking forward to teach and do research in a new environment. Many thanks to the colleagues at Radboud University, I enjoyed working with you!

Jos Tolboom, Olivier van Beekum and I wrote an article on the effect of near-peer teaching in robotics education. We found several positive effects, like an increase in STEM-attitudes. You can read our article here: https://t.co/hrQ0dLzIL2
