Victor is among the very best supervisors I've met in my life. If you are looking for a PhD, please consider this position!

I'm excited that our project was nominated for the OSCA awards (not THAT Oscars award). See you next Monday at SPUI 21 to find out who the winners are! osc-international.com/osc-amsterdam/…

I'm thrilled to announce that we won the OSCA Award! Thanks for all the hard work by my student Navroop Kaur Singh. Many thanks for all the contributions from Jacco van Ossenbruggen, Tobias Kuhn (@[email protected]) Angelica Maineri, and other coauthors!

Hi everyone! I’d like to invite you to the upcoming  International Workshop on AI and Mental Health in conjunction with the Sino-Dutch Forum on Smart City. wasp.cs.vu.nl/smartcity/2024/ Registration is free.

This week I'm here at the SEMANTiCS conference. So much inspiration so far! SEMANTiCS Conference

I'm delighted that our paper "Aligning Data Management Plans with Community Standards using FAIR Implementation Profiles" has been accepted by the MTSR conference! The paper is going to be presented in the beautiful Athens in November. See you there! MTSR2025

I'm extremely excited that our paper "Examining LGBTQ+-related Concepts in the Semantic Web: Link Discovery, Concept Drift, Ambiguity, and Multilingual Information Reuse" has been accepted by the EKAW conference! See you in Amsterdam!

Guangzhou is sooo hot.

See you there!

Oh god. Our paper is at the very top of this list. Looks like Amsterdam researchers have contributed almost 1/3 of the accepted papers. That's very impressive.

The kickoff for my MBA at the Milano-Bicocca University is a great success with a very eye-opening course on Governance and Organization (of RIs). For the first time, I kind of have an idea of how different infrastructures are organized and funded. It feels like another level up.

The program for the upcoming 18th MTSR conference is ready (mtsr-conf.org/home). I'm happy to announce that I'll chair the afternoon session on Open Repositories, Research Information Systems, and Data Infrastructures. See you in Athens and online! #mtsr #metadata #semantics

Are you curious about how LGBTQ+ concepts are interlinked in the semantic web? In my upcoming presentation at the SWIB conference, I will show you how concepts in Homosaurus, GSSO, QLIT, are interconnected and linked with general-purpose conceptual models. See you at SWIB!

It's my honor that our paper has been selected as a spotlight paper. Looking forward to seeing you at EKAW! (I already feel so stressed, to be honest).

Today, Nov 16 is the 108th birthday of Christopher S. Strachey (16 November 1916 – 18 May 1975). Strachey was one of the founders of denotational semantics, and a pioneer in programming language design . He is one of the LGBTIQ+ pioneers in computing.

Attending MTSR is like coming to visit families. It's amazing to have a reunion! MTSR2025

Sharing a very nice cocktail drink in one of the top 50 cocktail bars in the world.

It's a great honor being here at MTSR in Athens. The conference dinner was great. It's painful to think about returning to Amsterdam and eating the tasteless food (but much more expensive) there. 🥲 MTSR2025

It's a great honor to present our "spotlight" paper at the EKAW conference. I received quite a few questions about our approach during the lunch break and dinner.

I'm so stressed tonight. 🫠 🥲
