CURRICULUM VITAE
Madeleine Eline Hardus was born in Gouda on the 9th of May 1980. After finishing her secondary school at the Antonius College in Gouda in 1999, she started her Biology study at the University of Utrecht. For her Master degree she did an internship at the department Science & Society and wrote a report about the change of management of Natura 2000 area after implementation of the Habitat directive in the Netherlands. She wished for more adventure during her second internship and found a possibility to go to Indonesia to study orangutans in a peatswamp area in central Kalimantan, under supervision of Serge Wich and Carel van Schaik. This work led her to her Master degree in 2006 at the University of Utrecht. In 2007 she returned to Indonesia, to pursue her study on orangutans, this time in Sumatra in a lowland forest. A year later her actual PhD project started, of which the present thesis is the outcome.
