The magic of seagrasses
For scientist Tjisse van der Heide the summer of 2012 was one to never forget. He had an article published in the authoritative journal Science and received a prestigious Veni grant from the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research.

Van der Heide works with a research focus on seagrasses.
