Nursery Cooperative Staff
The Nursery Cooperative is currently staffed by one full-time Assistant Research Professor (who is also serving as Interim Director) and one full-time Research Associate; both of these positions help to plan and conduct field and laboratory research including experiment layout, establishment, measurement, and statistical analysis. An Outreach Assistant (shared half-time with the College of Forestry, Wildlife and Environment) is also employed to assist with budgeting, meeting arrangements, newsletter publications, technology transfer, graphic design, maintaining the website, and other administrative and outreach objectives.
Several College of Forestry, Wildlife and Environment faculty members also work with the Nursery Cooperative in the establishment of research projects, technology transfer, and publications. The amount of time each allocates to Nursery Cooperative activities is related to their own discipline and interest in nursery work.
