NWO Vidi Fellowship

NWO Vidi Fellowship

I have just been awarded an NWO Vidi fellowship to stay in the Netherlands for another 5 years. I will most probably bring this grant to the Leiden Observatory. I will build a group there and my starting funds will let me hire one Ph.D. student and one postdoc. Exciting times ahead!
