    An interview with plant biologist and mycophile Shireef Darwish.

    Plant biologist Shireef Darwish did his B.Sc. in botany at the Macdonald Campus of McGill University. An interest in how plants interact with and respond to their environment led him to study plant-insect interactions at McGill, and in 2007 he earned his M.Sc. for work on changes in gene expression in plants as a defense against caterpillar herbivores. However the reason we interview him for the Ecolibrium Podcast is because he is an insufferable mycophile (a passionate lover of fungi), and has dedicated himself to learning about this breathtaking kingdom of underappreciated organisms since high school.
