A productive meeting of minds at Biomechanics Research Week 2016
It was a “who’s who” of tree researchers and practitioners that met at the Davey Tree Research Farm in northeast Ohio last summer for the third installation of Tree Biomechanics Week. This gathering, supported in part by TREE Fund, has been taking place once every three years as a way to cross-pollinate ideas and get researchers and practitioners working together to encourage them to take a broader view of their potential connections and contributions to tree care.
