  2. Nieuw Rewilding Expertise Centre gaat van start

    Nieuws
    Nederland was al pionier op het gebied van rewilding nog voordat dit zo genoemd werd. “Rewilding geeft meer ruimte aan natuurlijke processen,” zegt Liesbeth Bakker, de eerste hoogleraar op dit gebied. Deze maand richt zij het Rewilding Expertise Centre op.

  3. Rewilding Expertise Centre

    rewildingexpertisecentre.nl
    Rewilding is increasingly applied across the world to stimulate biodiversity recovery, improving ecosystem functioning and mitigate and adapt to climate change. There is increasing experience with rewilding in practice and through research. To synthesize this information, identify knowledge gaps and make knowledge on rewilding available, the Rewilding Expertise Centre started in September 2025. Over time the Rewilding Expertise Centre aims to grow into a network of rewilding researchers, practitioners and any holders of knowledge on rewilding and function as a knowledge hub for rewilding information and education.

  7. Student projects: methane-cycling microbes in Greenlandic lakes

    Stage
    We are looking for a motivated BSc/MSc student who is interested in working with lake water samples and associated methanotrophs at the department of Microbial Ecology at NIOO-KNAW, Wageningen, The Netherlands.

  8. Towards Orchid Propagation that is Free of Microbial Contamination: Green and Sustainable Solutions (TOP-MASS)

    Project 2025–2027
    Cleaner, Greener Orchid Propagation: Tackling Microbial Contamination Sustainably. Orchids are not only beautiful - they're big business. The Netherlands produces around 134 million orchids each year, worth an estimated 550 million euros. But behind the scenes, growers face a hidden threat: microbial contamination during the production of young orchid plants.

  9. Cordovez Research Group

    Plants host a rich community of microorganisms on and within their leaves, collectively known as the phyllosphere microbiome. These microorganisms can enhance plant performance by supplying nutrients, protecting against pathogens, and helping plants cope with environmental stresses. Despite their importance, the diversity and functions of many of these microorganisms, especially phyllosphere yeasts, remain poorly understood.

  10. CLIMET: Climate feedbacks and methane cycling in Arctic lakes - enzymes to atmosphere

    Project 2025–2029
    Arctic lakes are important hotspots for the microbially- mediated production and cycling of methane (CH4), a potent greenhouse gas. The Arctic is warming nearly four times faster than the global average, changing polar ecosystems and with it the potential for positive or negative climate feedback effects. Rising temperatures are changing terrestrial vegetation cover, melting permafrost soils, and increasing glacial discharge from ice caps and ice sheets. Consequently, CLIMET focuses on two potential drivers of lake CH4 cycling in West Greenland that are changing rapidly as Arctic ecosystems change.
