ASCEND is an NSF-funded Biology Integration Institute aimed at Advancing Spectral biology in Changing ENvironments to understand Diversity
Joined December 2020
We seek to train integrative biologists who apply spectral biology to understand the causes and consequences of plant biodiversity across scales in an era of rapid global change. Check out our publications:
