Eelke's last minute Bio

Hi everyone!

My name is Eelke Brouwers and I’m 23 years old. Already 4 years ago I started my study (Psychobiology) here on the UvA. Although my preference changed between cognitive neuroscience and neuroscience over the last few years I finally made up my mind and chose for the cognitive neuroscience track.


Instead of choosing some real (and interesting) psychobiologic subject for my thesis I wanted to try something else (still regretting this impulsive thought btw). I chose communication and wrote a public campaign about the unnecessary use of antibiotics.

Fortunately I got to write a paper about addiction last year. In this paper I suggested a selective dopamine D3 receptor as a potential drug for tobacco addiction. Quite a biological paper, but really interesting.

I don’t have an internship yet, so can’t say much about that part, but I’m really looking forward to do some real research.

Cheers
