I specialize in plant evolutionary genomics, focusing on understanding the genetic mechanisms that drive plant diversity and adaptation, including crop wild relatives and minor crop domestication. My work emphasizes comparative genomics, integrating genetics, ethnobotany, bioinformatics, and evolutionary biology, with the aim of contributing to global food and nutrition security.At Wageningen University & Research, I serve as the Chair and Professor of the Biosystematics Group, leading various research projects, collaborating with an extensive international network, and overseeing our biodiversity and comparative genomics-focused education. I also take pride in mentoring emerging scientists and fostering innovation and appreciation for biodiversity. In addition, I serve on the advisory board of Hortus Botanicus Amsterdam, the scientific advisory board for The Dutch Biodiversity Centre (Naturalis), and as Treasurer for the Dutch Evolution Society.Biosystematics Group at WUR: https://www.wur.nl/en/research-results/chair-groups/plant-sciences/biosystematics-group.htmGoogle Scholar Profile: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=VSy8qe4AAAAJ&hl=en&oi=ao
