Hall of Fame 2017

Many of our staff and students have won prizes over the past year. Others have been awarded a subsidy, or, because of their eminence in their field, they have been appointed members of academic societies or have taken up positions in the community. Reasons enough to be proud of them and to include them in our 2017 Hall of Fame. We are very proud of them all.

Eveline Crone
Eveline Crone: most honours in 2017

The undisputed science diva of 2017 is the ‘professor of adolescent studies’ Eveline Crone. She was awarded a Spinoza Prize, won two awards from NWO and was appointed to three scientific societies, including the European Research Council.  Dutch monthly magazine OPZIJ also voted her the most influential female scientist in the Netherlands. She was the most frequently honoured individual in 2017.
