Principal researcher of Marine and Estuarine Ecology. I studied biology at the University of Amsterdam. Author of more than 140 papers in international journals in the areas of ecology, tropical biology, marine, and microbial ecology. My major interests include corals, sponges, butterflies, odonates, microbial ecology, biostatistics, bioinformatics, and relating community structure to spatial, environmental, and temporal processes. I have been involved in a range of research projects including studies of microbial communities associated with various coral reef organisms and identifying the potential roles and functions of microbial communities in aquaculture systems.
