Congratulations!

Gerhard Scholtz has just been awarded The Crustacean Society Excellence in Research Award (TCSERA)!

Dr. Scholtz was the first author on the first paper introducing Marmorkrebs to the scientific community, and other Marmorkrebs papers as well.

While Dr. Scholtz has co-authored multiple Marmorkrebs papers, it was mentioned this is just a small fraction of his scientific papers, around one hundred.
