About
I am a PhD student working with Marcel Visser on timing of breeding in great tits (Parus major). We aim to understand the evolutionary consequences of global warming and unravel the genetic basis of laying dates and its regulation on a molecular level.

Early birds of the future: earlier, but still too late?
How much earlier can great tits lay their eggs to keep up with climate change? A team from the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) took a sneak peek into the birds’ future.
