Stijn earned his BSc in Biology and MSc in Behavioural Ecology from Utrecht University, where his research projects focused on the welfare assessment of companion and zoo animals. He then completed his PhD at ETH Zurich on the welfare assessment of dairy cattle, with a specific focus on posture transitions in cubicle housing.
