  • Profile

    I am a post-doctoral researcher and lecturer at the Amsterdam School of Communication Research (ASCoR).  My research focuses on persuasive and health communication and its subsequent effects, with particular emphasis on two critically relevant societal areas: food and gambling. While my Ph.D. research concentrated on food-related communications and their health-related impacts, my research focus now on the exposure and effects of gambling-related marketing communications.
