Program Areas

Dr. Russell is an Assistant Professor for aquatic plant management at the UF/IFAS Center for Aquatic and Invasive Plants (CAIP).

His extension program will focus on providing vital control and management information to key and affected stakeholders.

Dr. Russell grew up just north of the Florida panhandle in Opp, Alabama. He earned his bachelor's degree in Crop and Soil Science from Auburn University, where he became fascinated with weed science. Eli went on to earn a master’s in turfgrass weed science from Auburn University and a PhD in crop weed science from Virginia Tech.
