I obtained my PhD in 1996 at the Radboud University Nijmegen (at that time called the University of Nijmegen). Between 1996 and 1999 I was a Research Fellow of the Royal Dutch Academy of Arts and Sciences (which really is just a very fancy post-doc position) and in 2000 I moved to the University of Amsterdam as an associate professor. In 2002 I became full professor, and in 2006 I moved back to the Radboud University Nijmegen. In 2005, I won both the APA Award for Early Career contributions and the EAESP Kurt Lewin Award. In that same year, I also received a "VICI" grant, the biggest grant of the Dutch Science Foundation (NWO). The money of this grant is spent on research on unconscious thought, conscious thought, and decision making. In 2007 I published a popular psychology book in Dutch called "Het Slimme Onbewuste" ("The Smart Unconscious"), which became a bestseller.
