FLORUM: A low-stakes discussion group for plant ecologists at UBCFLORUM: A low-stakes discussion group for plant ecologists at UBC After a long hiatus, we’re resurrecting Florum, a discussion group for plant ecologists from all over UBC.

The format is very flexible. One person each meeting is responsible for sparking the discussion in whatever way they chose. This may involve presenting tentative research ideas, a set of data in need of analysis, a new or old paper to decipher and discuss, a finished research product, or anything they see fit to open for discussion. The main goals are to allow people to get feedback on their research at any and every stage, to explore ideas/papers/methods that people want to better understand, and to connect the rather dispersed group of plant ecologists on the UBC campus.
