Organizing Team
Current members of the organizing team
Anita Eerland, Behavioural Science Institute (BSI)
I work as an assistant professor of Communication Science – and Open Science Officer – within the Behavioural Science Institute (BSI). I joined the Radboud University and OSCN in 2021 after working at Utrecht University and founding the first Dutch Open Science Community there together with Loek Brinkman in 2018. I am a board member of the network of Open Science Communities the Netherlands (OSC-NL) and was the chair of the International Network of Open Science and Scholarship Communities (INOSC) for two years. Loek and I also developed the Open Science Community Incubator Program, a free 14-weeks online program to help people around the world to set up, run, and maintain their own local OSC. I love to share my experiences with Open Science and running a community to help and inspire others. I also have a podcast (in Dutch) on psychology (Drang naar Samenhang) together with Rolf Zwaan, and in my free time I like to cook, bake, hike, read, and solve puzzles (from old school jigsaws to escape rooms).
Jennifer Sander, Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics (MPI)
Hi, I am Jenni! I am a PhD candidate at the Language Development Department at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics in Nijmegen. My PhD project investigates the social origin of sign language acquisition in the context of visual attention. Working on a small population, my research relies on and profits from Open Science practices and I aim to further promote and support Open Science practices in my scientific community. In my free time, I enjoy running, hiking, cooking, and photography.
Maximiliano Cenci, Radboudumc University Medical Center
My name is Max and I am an assistant professor at the Department of Dentistry at the Radboudumc University Medical Center, in Nijmegen. I am a clinical researcher, and my research focus is on decision-making in dentistry, and on the promotion of research integrity on the field. I am an enthusiast of Open Science practices and I aim to foster transparency and better research practices through OS principles. In my free time I like cooking, biking with my kids, and having a beer with my friends.
Tim Middeldorp, Radboud University
Hi, my name is Tim Middeldorp and I joined the OSCN organizing team in August 2025 as a communication advisor for the Open Science programme. Open Science appeals to me because I’m concerned about the growing distrust towards science. Openness and accountability can help address this challenge. Additionally, I work for the Faculty of Science as a content specialist. I have a background in Cultural Studies and Media Studies, and I worked as a teacher at a secondary school for several years. In my daily life, I enjoy meeting up with friends, going on city trips, and I’m on a mission with my daughter to visit all the playgrounds in Arnhem.
Lieke Corbeek, Radboud University
Hello everyone, my name is Lieke Corbeek, and I joined the OSCN team in September 2025. I studied Medical Biology at Radboud University with a specialization in Science, Management, and Innovation. Currently, I am pursuing a Pre-Master’s in Communication Science, also at Radboud University. In my free time, I enjoy playing korfball and spending time with friends. At OSCN I will be supporting various activities, including social media, the website, newsletters, and organizing small events for our members.
