My main interests are in the role of the #PlantGenotype and its #Holobiont in...

Samen met #WageningenUniversity&Research onderzoeken we de aanwezigheid van de schimmel Aspergillus fumigatus in de lucht. Doel van het onderzoek is om beter inzicht te krijgen in hoe de schimmel resistentie ontwikkelt tegen schimmeldodende medicijnen, en hoe de resistente vorm van de schimmel zich in Nederland verspreidt. Voor dit onderzoek zoeken we naar mensen die 4 weken een deltaval in hun buitenruimte willen hangen. Help jij mee? ➡️ https://www.schimmelradar.nl
