’GLS taught me how to become an independent researcher. Doing research is more than experimenting, writing and presenting. It’s also operating in a team. I like working together with my fellow researchers who all share the same passion.'
Hedwich Teunissen
'Are Dutch strawberries really grown in Dutch soil? Are there connections between a plant disease in the south of Spain and an outbreak in a German greenhouse? These are the sorts of questions UvA alumnus Hedwich Teunissen focuses on.'
