The magic of seagrasses
For scientist Tjisse van der Heide the summer of 2012 was one to never forget.

And he received the Heineken Young Scientists Award, a special distinction awarded by the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW). Van der Heide works with a research focus on seagrasses.
