Had a lovely 2 days discussing ecological networks with a great group of experimentalist and theoretical people in Lucca! Maximum entropy, soft boundaries, food-webs and loads of great food (and wine) and wonderful discussions! #networks

PhPosition: Exploring Ancient Microbiomes for a Sustainable Agriculture. Interested to explore how microbes influence plant growth and whether we can learn something from ancient microbiomes. Please apply (start Spring 2025). jobs.uzh.ch/job-vacancies/… This position is part of

The 3rd December Soil Biology Group - WUR and NL Inst of Ecology present the results of the Citizen science initiative Bodemdierendagen in Wageningen at the Cafe' Onder de Linden. Are you curious about Soil Biodiversity in the Netherlands? See you there! 🐛🪳🕷️🪱🐜🐞 bodemdierendagen.nl/nl/citscicafeb…

On the ecological restoration of soils in agricultural systems - bringing two concepts together to restore degraded agricultural soils and return their functions. Was fun to think about this together with a great team (led by @LNeuenkamp). Biodiversity Research Leiden University (CML) nature.com/articles/s4200…

Fun Christmas party with best colleagues ever at CML! Missing @alenagsell but found a lovely gift from her on my desk. #bestofficemate #christmasparty

Yesterday Biodiversity Research Leiden University (CML), Evelien Castrop and I hosted a workshop on science visualization. Ellen van Heijst showed us how to simplify complex ideas through impactful drawings. Really helpful to break down concepts and be more efficient in making figures! #scicomm #biodiversity

This year #ns is providing me (and others om the same route) direct trains between Ede and Leiden. To me this means (after 25min bike ride), I can sit down in a train and work for 1h20min before 7min bikeride on the other side. Yesterday went by reading thesis for a defence.

Development of the EU 🇪🇺 food system 🫘🥘👩‍🍳 monitoring framework has just been published 🌍 . EU_ScienceHub highlights many critical areas in the food system to achieve #SDGs. Sustainable land use and #soil health is key for long-term land productivity 👨‍🌾lnkd.in/dbDwbxmd

I am looking for a postdoc to join a large project sampling plants and soils from across Canadian prairies to identify genomic indicators (plant genotypes, eDNA, soil biome) of ecosystem function. This person would work with the team to integrate data, with significant latitude.

Joined today the protest against cuts in higher education and research in #Wageningen. 2000 people marched together from campus to the city center for speeches (including a speech by the mayor). #stopthecuts

Dear #soil (research) people! Anyone planning on applying for Horizon Soil Mission this round? We would be especially interested in joining the Soil-03 (resilience through management of soil-water nexus) with knowledge on soil diversity vs. structure.

Back in the stately McEwan Hall for Emilia Hannula presenting on interactions in the rhizosphere #rhizosphere6
