Time: 12.00 - 13.00h
Place: Living Lab
Speakers: Desiree Uuldriks, Harriette Riese en Michelle Servaas
During her treatment for depression, artist Desiree Uuldriks created a daily artwork and filled out a digital diary (ESM) five times a day to track her mood. In this colloquium, Riese and Servaas (University of Groningen) discuss the scientific background of her treatment, while Uuldriks shares her personal experiences during the recovery process.
24 September: Responsible Research Hour
Time: 11.00 -12.00h
Place: SA11
Organized on a monthly basis and open to all colleagues within the institute, these informal gatherings provide a low-threshold space for reflection, discussion, and knowledge exchange on topics related to responsibleresearch practices and research culture. Discussions are intentionally broad and participant-driven. Past themes have ranged from: knowing where to go with (confidential) research integrity issues, the responsible use of artificial intelligence in research, questions surrounding transparency in publishing, diverse academic career profiles, knowledge security, and experiences with (posthumous) authorship.
If you like to propose a topic for discussion upfront, or if you’d like someone to raise it for you (with or without identifying yourself), feel free to let a member of the ResearchCommittee know (or contact the chair, Anna van ’t Veer, or the secretary, Thaddeus Bergé, directly).
