NEMO Professor Maartje Raijmakers
What’s the best way for people to learn about science and technology? That’s the question behind the research of Maartje Raijmakers, Professor of Cognitive Development Psychology at the University of Amsterdam. As an endowed professor at NEMO, she performs scientific research in collaboration with peers while NEMO tests out ideas for new exhibitions with visitors. This combination of theory and practice by NEMO and the University of Amsterdam makes the museum fun and educational – all while revealing new insights about science learning.
