He will be spending 2015 based at C\u00b7I\u00b7B as a U.S. Fulbright Fellow. While based at Stellenbosch he is collaborating with C\u00b7I\u00b7B scientists and affiliates to conduct research on invasive predators in freshwater systems. Specifically, he will be conducting experiments examining the trophic interactions of the African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis<\/em>, a species considered invasive in the Western Cape, Europe, and North and South America to better understand the role of natural enemies in regulating this species in its native and invasive ranges.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
