Last week, zoologists from The Netherlands and Belgium celebrated 150 years of Zoology in The Netherlands at the Zoology conference in Leiden (Zoology 2023). During this event, A-LIFE Msc students Emma Diepeveen (Poster: Genetic diversity and population structure in subspecies of the Asian Elephant) and Vera Thijssen (Talk: Urban sensory conditions affect both vocal rival interactions and mate choice in Túngara frogs) won the poster and oral presentation prizes, congrats!!
