University of Florida scientist Christopher Vincent is used to working with the unknown to learn new grove management practices. As a University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences plant physiologist, Vincent works to discover how citrus trees can thrive under stressful conditions. Now, during the coronavirus stay-at-home recommendations, he’s applying those skills in a whole new experience –working from home with three school-aged children.
Like many parents, Vincent is juggling advancing a research program with attending to three children now learning at home. With a middle-schooler, a second-grader, and a three-year-old not only sharing an Internet connection but his attention, Vincent leverages organizational skills used to manage complex research projects into managing a daily schedule that intertwines work and home life.
