New beginning of CML

- January 1, 2009 marks a new beginning of the Institute of Environmental Sciences of Leiden University (CML). In many respects it is a fresh start because from this date:
- CML will be part of the Faculty of Science of Leiden University,
- CML will consist of two instead of three departments: the departments of Conservation Biology and Industrial Ecology,
- the institute will be managed by three persons in a board of governors;
- Prof dr. S. M. Verduyn Lunel (Dean of the faculty of Science)
- Prof dr G.R. de Snoo (Head of Department CML-EB)
- Drs. G.J. van Helden (Managing Director of the Faculty of Science)
The new start concludes a period of more than two years of reorganisation. Mr. Maarten van Dijk who acted as interim manager from July 2007 finished his job at the end of 2008.
