COURSES AND WORKSHOPS
NEMASYM–RCN; Nematode-Bacterium Research Coordination Network
Upcoming Courses and Workshops
International Entomopathogenic Nematodes and Insect Pathology Courses
I have designed these mobile applied courses to give participants from different countries a thorough grounding in all aspects of practical Insect Nematology and Insect Pathology. Emphasis is given to the identification of major groups of Nematodes and other pathogens (Bacteria, Fungi, Protozoa and Viruses) with potential for biological control of insect pests.
These courses are taught in either Spanish or in English (upon request). There are approximately 30 hours of formally presented lectures and 20 hours of laboratory instruction/demonstrations and a field trip. I have taught many versions of this course based on interest of organizers and participants.
