In October 2023, I collaborated with the AMB Ercole Cantù association on the Portello Mycological Exhibition in Milan. My role covered various tasks: I contributed to the setup, the identification of mushroom specimens, and guided visitors through the exhibition.
Why This Project
Mycology is a major passion of mine. Working with the association allowed me to meet expert mycologists, exchange ideas, and introduce the world of fungi and its importance to the general public.
What I Learned
- •Mushroom Identification – Refined my skills in identifying fungal species thanks to the association's mycologists.
- •Exhibition Logistics – Handled setup and supported other volunteers.
- •Science Communication – Practiced scientific outreach, aiming to translate technical concepts into accessible language for everyone.
