Quantitative Ecology Lab
Our overall goal is to study the processes governing the evolution and maintenance of individual variability within populations. We structure our research on demography and life history theory to address questions regarding population dynamics through the quantification of population fitness and selection gradients on survival and reproduction.
We focus our methods on structured population models and use advanced theoretical biology and statistical modeling to enhance theories in Ecology and Evolutionary Demography.
