I am happy to announce that upon my return from maternity leave, starting January 1st, 2017, I will be working as a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer in the Cognition & Plasticity Lab, supervised by Dr. Heleen Slagter, at the Psychology Department of the University of Amsterdam. I am excited to start my new position!

I am the lucky recipient of one of two ABC Talent Grants, awarded in September 2016 by Amsterdam Brain and Cognition. The purpose of this grant (100.000 euros) is to spend one year as a postdoctoral researcher at UvA, continuing my research on rhythm and beat perception in the brain. I will be supervised by Dr. Heleen Slagter and Prof. Henkjan Honing. Dr. Slagter is an expert on predictive processing in the brain, and I am very much looking forward to working with her on connecting my research about rhythm and beat perception with general theories about predictive processing!

Surrounding the festive event of my defense, we will organise a workshop on beat perception and temporal predictions. You are cordially invited to join us for an afternoon of inspiring talks about these topics. Confirmed speakers include Dr. Jessica Grahn, Prof. Dr. Henkjan Honing, Prof. Dr. Sonja Kotz, Prof. Dr. István Winkler, and Dr. Rebecca Schaefer. The workshop will take place on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 7th 2016, from 14.00 till 17.00 h.
