Biography

Louise Vet is emeritus professor of Evolutionary Ecology at Wageningen University and former director of the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW), a research institute of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. She is an ecologist with a broad interest in ecology and evolution, working on multitrophic interactions, parasitoid behaviour and especially parasitoid learning. Her research involves chemical, behavioural and molecular ecology of plants and insects in a multitrophic and community context. The research ranges from fundamental to strategic: from questions on the evolution of species traits and species interactions within communities to the strategic development of sustainable agro-ecosystems that are primarily based on the prevention of pests and diseases (life-support function of biodiversity).
She is an elected member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. Vet was awarded several international prizes, e.g. the British Rank Prize for Nutrition, the Silverstein - Simeone Award of the International Society of Chemical Ecology) and in 2018 she received the Honorary Membership of the British Ecological Society.
