4th issue of the FEB Research Newsletter

We are proud to present to you the fourth edition of the FEB Research Newsletter.
In this issue, we present one of the first impact cases that received FEB funding: Assistant Professor Paul Buijs and his research on urban logistics. Professor Jenny van Doorn has attracted quite a lot of press coverage with her social service robot Pepper. In this newsletter, she talks about her research on how these robots can be an addition to our lives, especially in health care. And further, we celebrate together with Assistant Professor Stefan Berger, who received a Veni grant for research on the causes and consequences of dynamic team membership.
