Prof Dr Marcel E. Visser (1960) graduated from Leiden University in 1987, and continued there as a PhD student in the Animal Ecology Group for four years, working on the life-history of insect parasitoids.
After his PhD he obtained an EC Science Programme Fellowship to continue his parasitoids research at Imperial College (UK). In 1993 he shifted systems when he became a post-doc at the NIOO-KNAW, working on lseasonal timing in great tits. In 1996 he was appointed as a Senior Researcher and in 2002 as Head of Department.
His main interests are the interaction between ultimate and proximate aspects of timing, particularly in the Oak - Winter Moth - Great Tit/Pied Flycatcher system. In January 2007 he obtained a personal VICI grant from NWO and in January 2014 his ERC Advanced grant started. Since 2015 he has been included in the Thomson Reuters list of Highly Cited Researcher and in 2017 he was elected member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Sciences (KNAW) . He is currently subject editor for Global Change Biology and on the Editorial board of Philosophical Transactions B.
In June 2005 he was appointed as Professor on Seasonal Timing of Behaviour at Groningen University and in April 2012 Professor on Ecological genetics at Wageningen University but he remains based at the NIOO-KNAW.

Timing of growth and reproduction: ultimate functions and proximate mechanisms
An important part of this research has been funded by a NWO-VICI grant (2007-2013) and is currently funded by an ERC Advanced grant (2014-2019).
See the Visser-lab page for more information.
Songbird Genomics: High throughput genetics and QTL mapping in wild passerines
This project is carried out in cooperation with Prof. Dr. Martien A.M. Groenen from the Animal Breeding and Genetics department of the WUR, Dr. Kees van Oers of the NIOO, Dr. Jon Slate (Univ of Sheffield) and Prof. Dr. Ben Sheldon (University of Oxford). The Dutch component of the project has been funded by the NGI Horizon program and is currently largely funded by my ERC Advanced grant.
Impact of artificial light on flora and fauna in The Netherlands
This project is carried out in cooperation with Prof. Dr. Frank Berendse and Dr. Elmar M. Veenendaal from the Nature Conservation and Plant Ecology department of the WUR and Dr. Theo Verstrael of the VOFF and is funded by STW, Philips and the NAM and has recently been extended until the end of 2017.
