A big thank you to all the participants at the 2025 NVTB meeting! We are pleased to have met so many of you, and to have seen a lot of very interesting theoretical biology! Particular thanks to all of those who provided a talk, and very special thanks to Erika for arranging our own NVTB rail replacement bus!

Most importantly, we can announce that the Schoorl meeting next year will take place on June 1st and 2nd 2026. Please save the date! We also wish to congratulate Marco Saltini for winning our paper price with his paper “Evolution from mixed to fixed handedness in mirror-image flowers: insights from adaptive dynamics“, our winner of the presentation price Griffin Kutler Dodd, and Rob de Boer who became a lifetime honorary member. The complete minutes from the general assembly can be found here and the financial report here. At this general assembly, Martijn de Jong stepped down as secretary. We thank him for his efforts! David Versluis has been installed as the new secretary.

Also a big thanks to Dopersduin for providing us with an excellent place to stay. We would also like to thank the NWO for providing financial support, which helped us fund this meeting. We hope to see you all again next year!

Kind regards,

Martijn Egas, David Versluis & Erika Tsingos
