Tanja Slotte<p>Very happy and proud of Yannick Woudstra, who just won a MSCA postdoctoral fellowship with my lab at Stockholm University as a host! His project will investigate the evolutionary fate of pollen in asexual plants, using dandelions (Taraxacum) as a model. <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/evolgen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>evolgen</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/EvolutionaryBiology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EvolutionaryBiology</span></a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/HorizonEU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HorizonEU</span></a></p>
