I was recently asked by the executive board of Journal of Ecology to highlight presentations and other events that I am looking forward to at the INTECOL conference, taking place in London, August 18-23 (http://www.intecol2013.org). Well, I will start by admitting that I feel rather bad that I wasn’t able to attend the ESA(merica) this…
So having missed the ESA annual meeting this year, as a British Expat I’m very much looking forward to coming home to the UK to attend INTECOL which is being held in the greatest city in the world, London. Warm beer, steak and kidney pie, fish n’ chips, rain, yes, I’m looking forward to INTECOL…
