I now study how interactions between plants and soil microbes shape plant population dynamics and species coexistence. My PhD dissertation includes theoretical and empirical work on how abiotic environmental variation and plant-soil feedbacks shape plant diversity, especially in California grasslands. This fall I will begin a postdoc at the University of Missouri, where I plan to continue working towards a mechanistic and general understanding of plant-microbe interactions.<\/p>\n<p>The Plant Population Ecology section has helped me attend the past two ESA conferences with the Student Travel Grants, and I\u2019ve really enjoyed making new friends and professional connections at the section mixers. I am excited by the opportunity to help grow the community by serving as Secretary. I will continue the Early Career Profiles series, especially highlighting members from diverse backgrounds and institutions. As secretary I would also be happy to help PPE members organize plant ecology-focused Symposia, workshops, or other organized sessions for ESA conferences. Finally, I think there\u2019s a great opportunity for PPE to build connections with other ESA activities (e.g. more direct engagement with plant ecology undergraduate researchers in the SEEDS program), and would be excited to help with such efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esa.org\/plantpopulation\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41\/2020\/05\/KandlikarCV.pdf\">Click here to view Gaurav\u2019s CV<\/a>.<\/p>\n<link rel='stylesheet' id='formidable-css' href='https:\/\/esa.org\/plantpopulation\/wp-content\/plugins\/formidable\/css\/formidableforms41.css?ver=619920' media='all' \/>\n<div class=\"frm_forms  with_frm_style frm_style_formidable-style\" id=\"frm_form_2_container\" >\n<form enctype=\"multipart\/form-data\" method=\"post\" class=\"frm-show-form  frm_pro_form \" id=\"form_ppesecretaryelection2020\" >\n<div class=\"frm_form_fields \">\n<fieldset>\n<legend class=\"frm_screen_reader\">PPE Secretary Election 2020<\/legend>\n\n<div class=\"frm_fields_container\">\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"frm_action\" value=\"create\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"form_id\" value=\"2\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"frm_hide_fields_2\" id=\"frm_hide_fields_2\" value=\"\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"form_key\" value=\"ppesecretaryelection2020\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"item_meta[0]\" value=\"\" \/>\n<input type=\"hidden\" id=\"frm_submit_entry_2\" name=\"frm_submit_entry_2\" value=\"0755d45c73\" \/><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"_wp_http_referer\" value=\"\/plantpopulation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/523\" \/><div id=\"frm_field_7_container\" class=\"frm_form_field form-field  frm_top_container vertical_radio\">\n    <div  id=\"field_x0iwr_label\" class=\"frm_primary_label\">Do you approve Gaurav Kandlikar to serve as PPE Secretary for 2020-2022?\n        <span class=\"frm_required\"><\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"frm_opt_container\" aria-labelledby=\"field_x0iwr_label\" role=\"radiogroup\">\t\t<div class=\"frm_radio\" id=\"frm_radio_7-0\">\t\t\t<label  for=\"field_x0iwr-0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"radio\" name=\"item_meta[7]\" id=\"field_x0iwr-0\" value=\"Yes\"\n\t\t data-invmsg=\"Do you approve Gaurav Kandlikar to serve as PPE Secretary for 2020-2022? is invalid\"   \/> Yes<\/label><\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"frm_radio\" id=\"frm_radio_7-1\">\t\t\t<label  for=\"field_x0iwr-1\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"radio\" name=\"item_meta[7]\" id=\"field_x0iwr-1\" value=\"No\"\n\t\t data-invmsg=\"Do you approve Gaurav Kandlikar to serve as PPE Secretary for 2020-2022? is invalid\"   \/> No<\/label><\/div>\n<\/div>\n    \n    \n<\/div>\n\t<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"item_key\" value=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t<div id=\"frm_field_26_container\">\n\t\t\t<label for=\"field_ay2br\" >\n\t\t\t\tIf you are human, leave this field blank.\t\t\t<\/label>\n\t\t\t<input  id=\"field_ay2br\" type=\"text\" class=\"frm_form_field form-field frm_verify\" name=\"item_meta[26]\" value=\"\"  \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<input name=\"frm_state\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"ui4s3XlkXiKIfiQPO+v3mVTd92TtAZnFgG2n+n2kh6ur0DLq9AQCcdNgA2xz8qY2\" \/><div class=\"frm_submit\">\n\n<button class=\"frm_button_submit frm_final_submit\" type=\"submit\"  >Submit<\/button>\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/fieldset>\n<\/div>\n\n<p style=\"display: none !important;\" class=\"akismet-fields-container\" data-prefix=\"ak_\"><label>&#916;<textarea name=\"ak_hp_textarea\" cols=\"45\" rows=\"8\" maxlength=\"100\"><\/textarea><\/label><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"ak_js_1\" name=\"ak_js\" value=\"36\"\/><script>\ndocument.getElementById( \"ak_js_1\" ).setAttribute( \"value\", ( new Date() ).getTime() );\n<\/script>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is time to elect a new PPE Section Secretary!
