From 2025, Pans is attached to Atria and the Aletta Jacobs Fund as a fellow because of a special woman: Mary Zeldenrust-Noordanus (1928-1984). Pans is writing the biography of this former NVSH president, a (wrongly) forgotten icon of the sexual revolution in the 1960s in the Netherlands.
The book will be published by Balans publishers. It is also a dissertation. Pans hopes to do a PhD on Zeldenrusts' life at Utrecht University in 2026.
