Dear IUFRO colleagues, My name is Isabel Mendoza, I work at the University of Valencia. I am writing an entry on how plant scientists manage (or not) to balance their professional and personal lives for the Plantae Self Reflection Blog series. For that I am gathering answers of fellow plant scientist to a short questionnaire (here—>https://goo.gl/Ag7f9g) in order to learn how they deal with both sides of their lives. I will be very great full if you invest a few minutes (5 tops!) of your time to answer the questionnaire and, if you feel like it, share it with your plant science peers.
