Service to the Community: Associate Editor, Editorial Board, Member, 2010 to present
I am an Associate Editor for the following international journals: Australian Journal of Botany, Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, Phytotaxa, Taxon; Courses and Workshops outside Duke, Humboldt Research Institute, December 2010
In collaboration with Blanka Shaw, we taught a week-long course at the HRI in Maine, on liverwort identification. This was an outreach activity associated with my NSF Tree of Life grant.; Field Workshops taught outside Duke, December 2010
In collaboration with Blanka Shaw, we taught two workshops on plant identification in Alaska during 2010: one in McCarthy and one at the University of Fairbanks. These are outreach components of our collaborative NSF grant on peatmoss systematics and evolution; Plant Identification, to present
Bryophytes are frequently sent to B. Shaw and myself as a result of our Duke Herbarium activities, for identification. These are typically sent by government employees (e.g., U.S. Fish & Wildlife; National Park Service) and/or environmental NGOs. This is a critical (and widely recognized) outreach service provided by the Duke Herbarium.; member, Board of Scientific Advisors, 2004
This board reviews proposals for grants-in-aid for research at the Highlands Biological Station. I am the Duke representative.
