Profile

My research focuses on trust, agency, and human reliance, particularly in the context of technology.   We rely on and through technology in most of our pursuits --- but when do we have reason to trust it?

I currently lead a two-year interdisciplinary research project on medical trust and network-based telecare systems (technologies and services that deliver health care to patients via software in the form of knowledge, coaching and self-monitoring), funded by NWO.
