About

I currently work at the Political Science Department (Cevipol) at the Université Libre de Bruxelles. I work on a 3-year funded project by the Fund for Scientific Research (FRS-FNRS) entitled "The Costs and Benefits of (Not) Including Anti-establishment Parties in Government for Voters". In this project, I study the debate about and effects of (not) including anti-establishment parties in government on voters' attitudes & behavior using content analysis and an experiment.
