Dr Catalina Goanta

Postdoctoral researcher (2019–2021)

Catalina Goanta was a postdoctoral researcher at Studio Europa Maastricht, assistant professor of private law at the Faculty of Law, and co-directs the Maastricht Law and Tech Lab with Gijs van Dijck and Marcel Schaper.

Her current research focuses on decentralisation and platform governance, with projects such as the regulation of social media influencers, where she looks, among other things, at the contractual control of social media content that generates revenue. For this project, she collaborated, among others, with technology artist Paolo Cirio, who designed a campaign to highlight advertising about controversial products.
