Background and activities
I am a researcher at the Centre for Biodiversity Dynamics (CBD).
My research focuses mainly on population ecology.
I have a particular interest in combining theoretical modeling and empirical data analysis to improve our understanding of nature and how to preserve it. I strive to uncover the mechanisms behind patterns seen in natural populations, particularly in relation to stochastic population dynamics, and to improve our ability to understand those patterns from limited data.
I am currently leading a work package in the SUSTAIN project, studying effects of environmental stochasticity on multi-species harvested systems.
