YERUN Research Mobility Award for Joey Tang

Joey Tang, PhD candidate at FASoS has been awarded with a YERUN (Young European Research Universities) Research Mobility Award (RMA) for his research on gender inequality in Dutch organisations by using "big data".

The Research Mobility awards are competitive awards for PhD students, post-docs and early career researchers. The programme provides support for researchers to undertake a minimum of 1-week stay at a YERUN partner institution from a different country. In total 40 RMAs will be awarded to researchers from across the YERUN network. Nine of these researchers come from Maastricht University, the highest number among the 17 YERUN partner universities.
