I am a Research Support Coordinator at the Faculty of Behavioural, Management and Social Sciences (BMS) at the University of Twente (since 2016). I coordinate and support a range of research support processes, policies and services, with a focus on research ethics, privacy, PhD policy and research information management.
I work closely with researchers, PhD candidates, students, faculty management, BMS Data Stewards and central university services to support responsible research practices and translate policies into practical guidance and procedures.
Research ethics
I coordinate and support research ethics review processes within BMS (Ethics Committee domain HSS), including the maintenance of review procedures and the ethics review application, handling amendments (ethicscommittee-hss@utwente.nl), supporting reviewers, and maintaining information for researchers and review committees. I contribute to the development and implementation of research ethics policies and infrastructure at faculty and university level, and participate in relevant national developments (NETHICS). I also support the handling of questions and complaints related to research ethics.
Privacy in research
As the BMS contact person for privacy in research, I advise researchers on the responsible processing of personal data, including privacy requirements, data processing agreements and related procedures. I work closely with the University's Data Protection Officer (DPO) team and the BMS Data Stewards to help researchers identify the appropriate guidance and support.
PhD and research support funds
I coordinate procedures relating to faculty research support funds, including the BMS PhD Fund and the BMS Open Access/Science Fund. This includes supporting the implementation of associated policies and decisions and maintaining relevant information and guidance for applicants.
Pure Research Information System (RIS)
As the faculty manager for Pure, I support researchers with questions about managing their research output, profiles and activities, and improving the visibility of their research. I also support the use of research information for reporting purposes.
Information and education
I develop and maintain accessible, up-to-date information on research support topics through BMS websites and other communication channels. Together with the BMS Data Stewards and other colleagues, I contribute to lectures and educational activities for bachelor's and master's students on research ethics, privacy and responsible research practices.
