An amazing opportunity to work with a rising star in the field!

Was a pleasure to see @zoppolat.bsky.social once again present our work testing whether romantic relationship involvement buffers loneliness for asexuals as it has been shown to do for heterosexuals and other sexual minorities at the IARR mini conference in London. Curious about the results?…

We (a group of Dutch researchers) wrote an opinion article calling to protect academic freedom and research on sex and gender. The article was co-signed by over 300 academics, healthcare professionals and stakeholders, and it was published in a national newspaper (de Volkskrant) today!

Do women or men experience more loneliness? Is this even how we should think about #gender and #loneliness? In a new piece w/ Manuela Barreto & Marlies Maes we take stock of the field and point toward new ways of thinking about gender and loneliness. nyaspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

I remember being sceptical reading some papers from the early 2000’s on rapid effects of androgens. And now several recent papers have now described membrane receptors for androgens (see also doi.org/10.1126/scis...)! And one already has an agonist!

Nessa is doing exciting community-engaged work for our project on gender-affirming hormone therapy. This type of research is especially important in trans healthcare where the community has historically (and currently) been marginalized. Check out the new preprint to read more about our approach.

Hello Bluesky- I am very excited for a new start on here! I am a postoc researcher the The Department of Medical Psychology at The Amsterdam UMC. Originally from Ireland, I completed my PhD in behavioural science at Loughborough University (UK). Here is a brief snapshot of my journey so far:

How your email finds me

What a way to finish the year—with an important new paper led by two amazing PhDs, Skye Stanwich and Ezra Oosthoek. In it we analyze normative assumptions in evidence for gender-affirming medical treatment for adolescents. rdcu.be/d4ZzE

Very proud of @zoppolat.bsky.social for doing an amazing job presenting our work on asexuality, relationships, and loneliness at #ASPO2024. Asexual people are extremely underrepresented in psych research and we hope to contribute knowledge to this community. Stay tuned!

Our team is hiring a PhD student for a 4-year project to study the link between glycosylation profile and responses to immunotherapy in Amsterdam with the 🦋-less Sandra van Vliet. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions! #glycotime #Immunosky werkenbij.amsterdamumc.org/en/vacatures...

Hi all, I finally moved to Bluesky 👋! I am a Postdoctoral researcher at the Amsterdam UMC, at the Department of Medical Psychology, with a specific interest in the effects of gonadal hormones on well-being. I'll introduce my research and work 🧵:

If you're into studying psychology and anything LGBTQ+ related, give @dsquared.bsky.social a shout to join the list go.bsky.app/LsshH49

No.

We’ve got a nice group of people interested in LGBTQ+ Psych here already but I’m still looking for those I’m missing. Shout out with names of others on here so I can add to the community!
