Profile
I am an assistant professor at the Amsterdam School of Communication Research (University of Amsterdam). My research focuses on political conflict, the coarsening of political debate, and how this affects citizens' attitudes and behaviour. I also study the role of misinformation in political conflict, and how we can make citizens more resilient to misinformation. Central to my research is not only the relationship between politics and the public, but also the complex relationship between media and politics in today's media landscape.
