episode 63: Oh god, it’s invasive! – Florencia Yannelli on escaped invasive plants
We’re really happy to welcome Dr. Florencia Yannelli on the podcast. She is an ecologist and plant researcher who was not stopped by Corona to do science – she simply did the experiment at home!
Florencia’s research interest lies in invasive species and how they influence the community of plants and microbes in their habitats. We talk about her academic and home research and what role scientific outreach plays for her. You can learn more about Florencia on her website and get in touch through her twitter: @floryannelli.
