Columnist Femke Nijboer vraagt zich af of internationale studenten en medewerkers zelf wel zo graag in Twente willen blijven. Je kunt ze immers wel banen aanbieden, maar voelen ze zich ook welkom? https://t.co/LDpYyw0hrx

There's a skill I acquired early in my career that I wish I could unlearn.

The skill is being able to package mediocre or uninteresting results into a paper that could be accepted to a top conference.

Time spent doing that is time not spent doing the research that matters.
