My name is Kostas Georgopoulos and I come from Athens, Greece. I am currently working in Leiden University as part of the Above-Belowground interactions group where my research focuses on the use of soil inoculation as a way to assist the process of afforestation.
Brief biography
From an integrated MSc in Natural resource management and agricultural engineering, to an MSc in Soil biology, my career continues as a PhD candidate in forest ecology.
