I graduated as a biological technician at the Hogeschool van Amsterdam. Before I started working at NIOO I had different jobs as research technician at various research institutes. In 1998 I started working at NIOO where I conducted experiments with waterfowl. Since 2009 I am a member of the department of Animal Ecology where I assist in various projects.

Visser Group The research in the Visser Group focuses on seasonal timing of growth and reproduction. We aim to understand the causes of variation in timing and...Read more
