I am a Professor at Stony Brook University’s Department of Ecology and Evolution. For our vision, we aspire to foster an interdisciplinary natural history lab that prepares the next generation of scientists. As mission, we exist to understand what makes biodiversity unique and implications thereof. Our scientific objectives encompass three questions. First, how does biodiversity change in space and time? Second, what biological processes fuel biodiversity? Third, how do social factors and environment interact? See more in the online resumé.
