Symposium Explore the Extremes

On June 9th we organized a symposium about extremophiles – organisms that live in conditions we would not consider suitable for life. With four interesting talks about different organisms and perspectives, we had an evening that was filled with curiosity and interest in the new Omnia building. Thank you Servé Kengen, Willeke Mulder, Huub op den Camp and Isabelle Zink for your wonderful contributions! And thanks to the symposium committee for organising this event and the KNCV for sponsoring it!
