Hedderik van Rijn is Professor of Cognitive Science and Neuroscience at the Faculty of Behavioural and Social Sciences. Van Rijn conducts research into the relationship between behaviour and time. In doing so, he hopes to understand how cognitive processing is influenced by time. In 2022, Van Rijn’s research group focused on how our brains experience time. This research was presented in the interactive exhibition ‘TIME WILL TELL’ at the University Museum in Groningen. Van Rijn has also repeatedly conducted research into why we sometimes feel that time is going slowly, while it flies by at other times. In 2017, Van Rijn received a Vici grant for his research proposal on estimating time, entitled ‘The stopwatch in our brains’.
