Big 👏👏👏 for @patrick_zerrer who successfully defended his dissertation "Political action and news use of the Fridays for Future Movement in Germany" last week in Bremen! Co-advised by @Yannis_Theo and reviewed by @kuempelanna and @geise_stephanie. 🎉🎉 https://t.co/0E12cmRECy
Patrick did a tracking study of German FFF supporters and investigated their media repertoires. I'm both extremely proud and happy that he will hang around my lab a bit longer as postdoc in the INDI project: https://t.co/56vLObSrtR
