Meet Kirsten
In November 2025, I started at Dialogic as an intern from the Master's programme in Innovation Sciences at Utrecht University. During my internship, I combine writing my thesis with tasks as a research assistant. For my thesis, I am researching the automation of surgery through the use of robots with artificial intelligence, and how education and training should be adapted accordingly. Before starting my Master's, I completed a Bachelor's in Natural Science and Innovation Management, also at Utrecht University. I have broad interests, but topics such as healthcare, education, and digitalization particularly appeal to me. Fortunately, I have found a way to combine these topics in my thesis.
In my free time, I enjoy being active, creative, and musical. I love (beach) volleyball, dancing, theatre, and playing the piano. I also like to gain new experiences, for example, through travelling.
