UM Professors José Joordens and Leon Claessens have returned to their Limburg roots to conduct research of dodos, evolution and humankind to the place where Neanderthals lived and a Mosasaurus seems to be unearthed every other day.
Until recently, palaeontology and evolutionary biology were not among the key disciplines at UM. This is set to change, say the newly appointed professors José Joordens and Leon Claessens.
