UvA Faculty of Science

As you may have noticed, we have not been very active on X lately. For various reasons we have decided to phase out our presence here & switch to LinkedIn.
So if you want to stay engaged with what's going on at our Faculty, please follow us there: linkedin.com/company/uva-fa…
