At Utrecht University I work as 'bestuurssecretaris' (secretary to the board) of the Mathematical Departement. The Mathematical Departement consists of two institutes, the Mathematical Institute and the Freudenthal Institute. I support both institute boards in both strategic matters as in organizational matters.

The Dutch National Research Agenda is a source of inspiration for those interested in science. The agenda presents 140 overarching scientific questions and is the result of a unique bottom-up initiative, driven by the general Dutch public and a vast number of organisations in the Netherlands. The questions reveal the complexity of the issues challenging Dutch society today, and provide a glimpse into the areas where Dutch scientific research plans to focus on in the coming years.My task… Show more The Dutch National Research Agenda is a source of inspiration for those interested in science.

This is reflected in science policy which increasingly steers research to goals like solving sustainability, addressing responsible innovation or finding solutions for an ageing society. It is however unclear how such broad and unarticulated ambitions relate to the actual development of new technologies. This study intends to study how the different articulations of broad societal challenges are used by many different actors to specify, justify and legitimate different directions of research within nanotechnologies. Understanding the dynamics of these processes helps to benefit from the potential of nanotechnology and can help see how steering of science is taking place. Show less
