And

Mariângela Menezes (Universidade do Rio de Janeiro) about the "taxonomic update of planktonic mixotrophic phytoflagellates of inland water".

Invited speaker confirmed:
Robert Sanders will tell us "What drives a phototroph to food?"

Sanders Lab | Aquatic Ecology Bob Sanders is an ecologist who studies planktonic organisms in marine and fresh waters. His research emphasis is on protists (algae and protozoa) and their trophic interactions. He has interests in the ecology of protists from polar regions, and has been funded to investigate mixotrophy and/or kle...
