Just received this interesting work about assessment, didactics, learning and developing (in Dutch). I hope to obtain some interesting insights from it that I can use as a teacher. Looking forward to reading it. #teaching #didactics #education
A little bit of northern lights in the Netherlands tonight #northernlights #aurora #noorderlicht
Amazing northern lights last Monday and Tuesday in the Netherlands. #aurora #northernlight
Even the chairs at our hotel are really sciency #2025ISMPMI
Incredible flower of my Stapelia hybrid carrion plant. Yes she stinks, but it is all woth it. #carrionflower #Stapelia #plant
Last session of the day, starting at 21:00. Very long day at #2025ISMPMI.
Incredible to see the great camouflage of this shark moth (Cucullia umbratica). #insects #Entomology #moths
What I did last weekend? I Collected 182 invasive pest insects for my research. #SouthernGreenShieldbug #Nezaraviridula #Entomology #PlantScience #Stinkbug
The Plant-Microbe Interactions group of @cornepieterse.bsky.social was well represented at #2025ISMPMI. Great to see all the interesting work that they do during one of the final presentations. @svanwees.bsky.social, @rlberendsen.bsky.social, @arsheed-sheikh.bsky.social #plantscience
A very nice talk by Aileen at the BioSB HotTopics & NIME microbial ecology symposium on Fusarium plant pathogens in tortoise leaf beetle symbiosis. Fusarium protects the beetle against predation and the beetle acts as a plant pathogen vector. @berasymbionts.bsky.social #symbiosis #insects #fusarium
