Really excited to have my Inge Lehmann project, WARMEST, funded by @DFF_raad! I’ll be hiring a postdoc (contact me for info!) and we’ll be looking at West African terrestrial climate responses to orbital controls over Eocene boundary condition changes.

Op haar 80e doet @LeidenArchaeo-prof Corrie Bakels nog elke dag onderzoek, na een leven lang pionieren en opboksen tegen mannen. ‘Bij de rondvraag werd ik altijd overgeslagen. Een tekenaar weigerde voor me te werken. Ik dacht altijd: ik zal jullie krijgen’
