Hello everyone,
I am proud to announce our very first lab-meets-lab meeting on January 17. We'll have 3 presentations from Hot Politics Lab members and 3 presentations from members of the group around Reinout de Vries (Psychology, VU Amsterdam). There is a lot of interesting overlap between the two groups, and so I think this will be a very interesting meeting.
Everyone is welcome to join. Do note that we start a little earlier than usual because we will have 6 (!) exciting talks.
All the best, and happy holidays,
Gijs
