I was asked to help do the marketing of a weigh-loss pill someone developed. Guess what my answer was?

Een vraag voor mijn mede web nerds: Zou je op een door jou gebouwde website BSN nummers verwerken? Ik zit tussen gebruikers en een ziekenhuis in die per se BSN nodig heeft om bepaalde zorg/dienst te leveren. Loop ik een risico? Is dit met de juist versleuteling op te lossen?

Looking for scientific illustrations? I found a goldmine! This week, I discovered a massive collection of biomedical science illustrations: from anatomy, to neuroscience, and animals to microbiology, and more. 🤯
They’re free under CC by 4.0 and come as editable images in PowerPoint.
These will feature in the exhaustive documentation I’m building for researchers—helping them find high-quality visual resources (Yes, this is my idea of a “break” 😅).
Check them out at: https://smart.servier.com/image-set-download/

I just submitted an icon I made of the naked mole rat to PhyloPic, a database of free SVG silhouette images of animals, plants, and other life forms.
I'm working on a huge design resource for researchers to create better visuals, and I figured why not contribute some of my own work?

Als je ooit nog tegen mij over Blue Zones of Okinawa begint, krijg je een lange rant over pensioenfraude en slecht onderzoek. Het is onzin, en vragen aan honderdplussers waarom ze zo oud zijn geworden is de slechtste vraag om je eetpatroon op te baseren.
Mooi stuk in Skepter door @Enithka

I really need a new computer, after many crashes and issues. But I'm in doubt whether to choose a laptop or desktop. My main computer never moves, and I think a desktop is more durable/sustainable (you can easily upgrade and replace parts and doesnt need a battery). Is this true?

Gisteren gaf ik een impact keynote op de wetenschapsavond van het Jeroen Bosch Ziekenhuis. Ik geef altijd aan dat ik geen bloemen, chocolade of alcohol wil, maar liever een goed doel steun met dat geld. Zij waren de eerste klant die dit serieus nam! Zo cool. Dus stelde ik dit doel voor van het MDL fonds: https://www.mldscrowdfunding.nl/ De andere sprekers kregen wel bloemen, maar die wilden ze eigenlijk ook niet. Dus geef nooit ongevraagd bloemen of andere shit aan mensen!

When I walked into my last workshop, they thought I was one of the participating students. Although I'm about 15 years older then them, I do still feel like I could be one of the PhD students I'm teaching. But I'm not sure how soon acting like one of the guys will become weird...

Podcast tip: If books could kill. Awesome podcast where they debunk self-help books. I just listened to the 4-hour workweek and it's bizar how blatantly it's promoting scams.
I would have never found this without @ionica who mentioned it in her column! Thanks!

Ik sta op 14 oktober op het podium van de Nationale Wetenschapscommunicatiedag! Daar vertel ik over de creatieve vormen van wetenschapscommunicatie die ik ontwerp voor onderzoekers. Dus kom om 12.45 langs voor een inspirerende sessie die je niet wilt missen!
Heb je al eens van scrollytelling gehoord? Of een social media carrousel over je onderzoek gemaakt? Wat dacht je van een geanimeerde 3D-knikkerbaan om complexe concepten aan studenten uit te leggen?

To make your poster stand out, you need a conclusive title that communicates your main message right away. This way, even if someone only reads the title, they’ll still understand the key takeaway from your work.
Which title is more informative:
❌ Descriptive title: Association between air pollution and health outcomes in urban areas.
✅ Conclusive title: Expanding green spaces and enforcing low-carbon policies can reduce health risks from urban areas.

Imagine you're at a conference surrounded by dozens of posters. What makes you stop and take a closer look? Often, it’s the title. But if your title is merely descriptive—like “Urban Air Pollution and Public Health”—it doesn't tell your audience anything specific. They’re left wondering, “So what?” and might just move on.
The problem with these titles is that they only describe the topic, not the outcome. They don’t answer the key questions your audience has: What is your main message?

Your title is your first and often only chance to communicate your main message about your research—make it count!
Want to know why traditional descriptive titles are bad and how to create compelling titles for posters and infographics and combine multiple titles, including fun examples from participants in our workshops?

We just found out that a professor at a New York college uses the website of The Online Scientist as a reading resource for students in their SciComm course! How cool is that!
