This was accompanied by a tribute by two former PhD supervisees – Sarah Schoenmaekers and Pauline Melin – who presented Prof. Schneider with a Liber amicorum. This was brough to an end with Prof. Rianne Letschert presenting Hildegard Schnieder with the Tans Medal, and a musical tribute from the Tuna.
