Dear Dr Cespedes,
It is only last week I returned from San Jose after 3 months stay there. I keep visiting California (San Jose & Cupertino) every year. My children are there and I also accept some academic activities/university discussions. This year I had to visit twice. If you are interested, I can deliver a talk when I visit US next year. I gave a talk last year in Cornell.
There is no chance that an Indian has not seen parthenium. It is how many Indians are not aware about it, although they have suffered due to its ill effects! But what is lacking is education about the weed and its ill effects and its positive side.

I had the opportunity to organize two International conferences (1997 & 2005) and I have authored a book on Parthenium. If you are interested, I can send one.
Can you you attach a copy of your lecture notes? I can send lot
of information on this weed if you are interested.
Regards,
M Mahadevappa
