Science

Increasing complexity, multidimensional questions, multilayered answers. For years I have been drawn to questions regarding the communicative challenges and opportunities of the digital realm – mediating between natural and social sciences and the humanities. Next to having published two scientific books and a blog (which clearly deserves more attention), I am active as host for symposia.
