Lagrangian Turbulence: 20 years after

In this talk I will review different topics related to Lagrangian statistics in turbulence, starting from the connections between Eulerian and Lagrangian statistics studied together with Angelo 20 years ago. After discussing the use of exit-time statistics for characterizing two-particle dispersion in turbulence, I will present more recent results on phytoplankton dynamics, as an example of "swimming tracers" in turbulence.
