130: [Ecology & Evolutionary Biology] Ano Ang Slime Molds, At Bakit Sila Dapat Pag-Aralan? (with Dr. Nikki Heherson Dagamac)

Ask Theory

Dr. Nikki Heherson Dagamac is a long-term Balik-Scientist at the Department of Biological Sciences, College of Science at the University of Santo Tomas. He translated his expertise in the fields of basic and applied ecology, evolution, and genetics in the development of the course plans of various technical courses in the Biology program. His knowledge on machine learning, ecological modeling and statistics, and population genetics became fundamental in drafting remote and virtual laboratory exercises in Evolutionary Biology and Ecology.

We talked about slime molds and why they matter, becoming a Balik Scientist, shaping the next generation of scientists, applying science in biodiversity conservation, and more.
