Vanessa E. Rubio

New Phytologist highlighted @VannRub with a very cool profile about her path into plant ecology. This follows Vanessa's win of a poster presentation award at the NewPhyt Next Generations Scientists meeting earlier this year. Congrats Vanessa! nph.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.11…

The functional underpinnings of tropical forest dynamics—Functional traits, groups, and unmeasured diversity by @Nate_G_Swenson & I

🆕 How conflict shaped social cohesion in Colombia 🇨🇴 Today on VoxDev, @MelissaRubioRam @UniCologne explores how the characteristics of violence influence its impact on social capital. Read here: voxdev.org/topic/institut…

@Nate_G_Swenson Boooooo

We are recruiting an intern ($1,250 monthly plus travel) to work in Panamanian forests with an exciting team of ecologists and biogeochemists studying how different agents of disturbance (⚡️💨) influence forest recovery and nutrient cycling. Review of applications begins Feb. 1

Opinion out online now! "On functional groups and forest dynamics" by @vannrub and @Nate_G_Swenson dlvr.it/Svq6y0

Congratulations to Maria Natalia Umaña, Asst Professor @UMich, for her election as an ESA Early Career Fellow! Her cutting-edge research on plant functional traits has deepened our understanding of forest tree diversity & community dynamics, particularly in the tropics #ESA2023

@iamfalsafi @VietMBui92 @PhDVoice I had another word file only for references. I added all references there to avoid repeated entries. Once the document was completed I just pasted all refs

@PhDVoice split your thesis into multiple files (one per chapter) then combine them later, or work on one big file from the start?

⭐️Shortlisted for the 2022 Harper Prize! @VannRub explores the functional group version of the neutral theory suggested by Foster & Hubbell >30 yrs ago. Results stress the importance of deterministic & neutral processes during the assembly of communities: jecologyblog.com/2023/04/19/van…
