Extension
Research has impact when you share the findings with practitioners.
I use the Cooperative Tree Improvement Program as a venue to amplify the impact of my research results.
I engage foresters and tree farmers through member visits, presentations at society meetings, and online content. I present at scientific conferences to share research developments with geneticists around the world.
