Bernd Stimm

I received my first diploma in Forest Science in 1981 from the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München (LMU), where I remained to complete my PhD in 1985. While pursuing many research interests, I held positions at the LMU in both the Institute of Forest Botany and the Institute for Forest Tree Breeding and Immissions Research before joining the Institute of Silviculture in 1992. I have also served as a guest professor at universities in Ecuador, Laos, Malaysia and Nigeria. My main research interests are: Silviculture, reproductive biology of trees, woody plant propagation, seed ecology, forest restoration
