What we do?
The Majure Lab at Florida Museum of Natural History works toward developing a deep phylogenetic understanding of numerous plant groups while also incorporating traditional methods into plant systematic work. We are devoted to understanding our local flora and floras of other areas (i.e., floristics), principally in the Americas, with the goal of being able to describe the diversity of those areas in its entirety. The combination of phylogenetic, systematic and floristic work helps us understand not only specific plant groups, but likewise, entire communities of plants and the ways in which those communities evolved.
Majure Lab Statement of Diversity and Inclusion
The principle goal of the Majure Lab at the University of Florida is to understand and celebrate plant diversity. We likewise crave the opportunity to promote human diversity and inclusion in our lab group and among our collaborators, and we welcome everyone from any and all backgrounds to work with us to advance the mission of furthering our understanding of the beautiful and mesmerizing world of plants. We stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter, and we shun any form of violence, hate or discrimination against any group of people based on their skin color, belief system, sexual orientation or gender.
