The Nematology Research Group (NRG) at UENF is led by Prof. Ricardo M. Souza, in collaboration with two lab technicians, two graduate (doctorate) students and two field workers. The NRG focuses on basic and applied research areas on plant-parasitic and free-living nematodes. We count on a good research facility and access to other laboratories and the Phytossanitary Clinic. We work in collaboration with scientists affiliated to our University and other institutions.
