I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Psychological Methods departement at the University of Amsterdam. My research is twofold. First, I investigate the applicability of (non)linear models on emotion time series, often with a focus on both the model’s assumptions and whether the model can reproduce the patterns we observe in the data. Second, I am part of a team that focuses on developing and validating a pedestrian model that, when coupled with a disease transmission model, might allow us to simulate the effectiveness of behavioral interventions to mitigate virus spread.
