Our amazing Dr Glenn Kiekens from the Center for Contextual Psychiatry is again convincing everyone - this time at the ISSS conference - of the importance of investigating self-injury in everyday life! 👏📱

My amazing supervisor, Olivia Kirtley from the Center for Contextual Psychiatry, shows how you can implement multiple Open Science practices in one study ISSS conference in Vienna! Wondering how this in turn can motivate other researchers to try some of these out 🤔🤩
