Montana ecology professor to speak at WSU

Ray Callaway, a professor of plant ecology at the University of Montana, will speak at 成人头条 as part of the Watkins Visiting Professorship Lecture Series on biological sciences.

Callaway鈥檚 public lecture is at 4 p.m. Monday, Sept. 21, in 209 Hubbard Hall. The topic is 鈥淒oes Competition Run the World? Positive Interactions Among Plant Species.鈥

It is free and open to the public.

Callaway studies interactions among plants and the implications of these interactions in nature. Most recently, his focus has shifted to exotic plant invaders, because these species appear to break many of the rules that are thought to operate in natural systems.

The Watkins Visiting Professorship was created in 1974 from the Watkins Foundation, which provides the university鈥檚 biology, chemistry, geology and physics departments with one visiting professor each year as part of the series.
