The New Guinea #flatworm (Platydemus manokwari) is considered one of the 100 most invasive species in the world by the IUCN. It has not yet been found in the Netherlands, but there are two records now at the Dutch Caribbean island Bonaire (leg. Sylvia van Leeuwen).

Another opportunity to learn about diversity and evolutionary dynamics of fish parasites 🐟 from Maarten Vanhove as a keynote speaker at the Annual Meeting of ISP!

Postdoc is conceptually different from a #PhD position. Below are some key points to keep in mind before starting postdoc. 1️⃣ The harsh reality of being a postdoc: 1. Postdoc is a contractual (not educational) position. Your postdoc duties are defined by your contract &

Yeeah! Parasites can always surprise us 😊

Check out the new PhD position available in our lab! The supervisory team Maarten Vanhove Nikol KMENTOVA and Maarten Van Steenberge is looking for a motivated candidate interested in evolution of parasite-host interactions!

Excited to share the news, we are hiring! 🙃

So true!

We have a fully funded opening for PhD researcher. Join us for cutting-edge research on supramolecular chemistry, liquid-liquid phase separation. #PhD #phdoffer #phdpositions More info below. RT appreciated!

A wise and courageous decision, no doubt. Providing free labour for publishers that only seek to maximise profit is unsustainable and has to stop. Moreover, how long will we still be able to distinguish predatory and other journals if everyone focuses on rapidly reaping APCs?
