Inaugural lecture by Saskia van Wees: "Plants are anything but defenceless creatures"
Saskia van Wees investigates the intricacies of plant resistance and the role plant hormones play in these processes. Today, she delivers her inaugural lecture.
Yesterday, our dear colleague Saskia van Wees delivered her inaugural address, 'Plants are anything but defenceless creatures'. A fascinating exploration of plant resilience, hormones and innovation. 🌱 Read more: www.uu.nl/en/news/inau... #Science #uubeta #UtrechtUniversity #Plants

With at the approving eye of founding mother of our group, Johanna Westerdijk (1883-1961), Sietske van Bentum received her PhD diploma @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social. Happy supervisors @rlberendsen.bsky.social and Peter Bakker! For Peter, Sietske was the last successful delivery.... Thanks Peter!

Postdoc @ Plant-Microbe Interactions, Utrecht University
Postdoc at the University of Basel. Fascinated by the interaction between plants and microbes. My research focus is on the genetic components of plants governing their interaction with microbes.
I am a plant biologist at the University of Sheffield (UK). My lab studies the molecular, (epi)genetic and ecological strategies by which plants adapt to stress from pests and diseases.
NPEC offers high throughput and high resolution data from plants both above and below ground
With over 400 years of history and a strong commitment to innovation and academic excellence, we offer a wide range of programs and opportunities to learn, grow and make an impact.
