Hello, I’m Gabriel Heinrichs. I’m a philosopher of science and a designer, currently working as a researcher at Avans UAS and the University of Groningen, and as a tutor at the Master Institute of Visual Cultures.
I study opinion formation by groups, especially by accreditation review panels in higher education. My research was awarded an NWO doctoral grant (2021-2026), and is part of the interdisciplinary SCOOP programme. Read more about my research here.

Way back, I designed websites and wrote about music (for VPRO 3voor12, Ekko & Caesar) for a living. I still listen to music voraciously, and compile the odd playlist – this Buena Vista Social Epistemology Club playlist for instance.
After hours, I like to swim & bike, sing and play music (mostly guitar and flugelhorn nowadays), and take my family anywhere that features nature and coffee. I drive shared cars, I aeropress my coffee, stick to vegetarian food, and root for social equity and ecosystems restoration. Friends call me Gabri, pronounced /’χabri/ (IPA). Drop me a line (through e-mail, LinkedIn or Mastodon) and we’ll drink a cuppa.
