A paper with Anibal Pauchard on the problematics of biological invasions in developed vs. developing countries was accepted in Bio. Invasions

A paper with Tom Horton and Dan Simberloff on how the lack of mycorrhizal fungi can limit plant invasion is in press at Ecology.

A paper with  Mariano, Kathy and Nate on how exotic species disrupt seed dispersal is in press at Biology Letters (PDF).

I gave lectures and a lab in Florida for grad students, it was a really nice experience!

My sister Paula  defended her PhD in Philosophy studying some topics relate to ecology.

I'm organizing a symposium on pine invasions with Aníbal Pauchard and Ramiro Bustamante for the EMAPI conference in South Africa.

I gave a lecture at UCF in an Ecology class for grad students. I'm glad that I'll have a chance to teach a part of the course later this semester.

We are starting to receive MS for an special issue of the journal Biological Invasions that I'm editing with Joe and Jen, very exciting papers!

I'm giving a seminar talk next week (Feb 2nd) at the U. of Central Florida, hope to see you there!

I started to contribute on a blog on ecology and evolutionary ecology, check it out

After 18 days of field work, thousands of seeds planted, gallons of tanglefoot applied, and tens of m² of mesh cut, we set up the experiment

I’m setting up an experiment in Orlando on how different factors affect the invasion of many highly invasive plant species. It is looking nice!

A paper on how seed predation could halt pine invasion is out! (PDF)

We attended a great symposium at the University of Kentucky on bio-invasions

I gave a talk at the national parks headquarters in Bariloche on factors affecting pines invasions (check it out, it is in Español!)

I'm in Argentina doing fieldwork on the role of mycorrhizae on pine invasion

A paper with my friends Mariano and Andres on protected areas and endemism in Patagonia is out (PDF)

Back from ESA, it was a great meeting. If you missed my talk here you can see a PDF of it

Hope to see you at this talk at the ESA meeting next week!

We visited the U. of Tennessee field station at the Smoky Mountains; it is a great place for fieldwork!

My friend Lara defended her PhD! Congrats!

I'm back from Argentina

Romina started to work as a PhD student!

I'm back from field work in Florida

If you want to now about role of exotic deer on pine invasion, this paper was just published (PDF)

An article with Dave Richardson and Brian van Wilgen on conifer invasions, South America, and a short fuse is out (PDF)

I defended my PhD!
