I will spend one month at the Faculty of Letters at the University of Lisbon as invited scientist collaborating on the Encyclopedia of Madeira. Learn more about the project here.
I was invited to give a talk on human evolution at the Faculty of Letters of the University of Lisbon. A very interesting discussion followed with colleagues from the humanities!   Our latest article has been accepted for publication in Ecology and Evolution. Using microsatellite data, this paper assesses the genetic diversity and structure of the species of Micromeria present in Tenerife.
 I was invited to give a talk to 5th and 6th grade students at a local elementary school for boys. The subject I chose to talk about was mimicry in plants. We had so much fun and the kids really enjoyed the talk!
See here the note on the school website and more photos. During my latest trip to Peru, I was invited to give a talk at my former University. I was very excited to share my research with students and former professors!  A new name for the taxon of Micromeria present in Lanzarote and Fuerteventura was published today. Micromeria mahanensis Puppo was published in "Corrections to Phytotaxa 230: New species and new combinations in Micromeria (Lamiaceae) from the Canary Islands and Madeira".Our latest manuscript has been accepted for publication in Phytotaxa! This paper deals with the taxonomical revision of several taxa of Micromeria in the Canary Islands and Madeira.This month I have started working at Boku University in Vienna, Austria, as a Postgraduate Research Assistant. This is a temporary position and I'll be at Boku until December. |
