Our PhD student Alexander Guggenberger had the opportunity to visit the Department of Applied Economics at Erasmus University Rotterdam from October to December 2024. During his stay, Alexander focused on advancing his research on human-AI decision-making as well as presenting and dicussing his current work papers. The visit marked a significant chapter in his academic journey and was an enriching personal experience. Immersed in a new academic environment, Alexander found inspiration in the intellectual and cultural exchanges that defined his time in the Netherlands. “Read more” about his adventures.
