Cardillo, Marcel - The Australian National University

个人简介

I did my PhD at the University of Queensland, then spent a few years in the UK, first at the Institute of Zoology, then at Imperial College London, before returning to Australia and joining ANU in 2008. Prior to becoming an academic, some of my jobs included selling Rupert Murdoch’s first newspaper, leading guided tours through a mangrove forest, taking x-rays of leaves, topping up hand-drawn, cask-conditioned ale with lemonade, and editing VHS videos of badgers

研究领域

I work on a range of questions in community ecology, macroecology, macroevolution and conservation biology, mostly using a comparative or modelling approach. Most of my research has a phylogenetic perspective. Phylogenies can reveal more than just evolutionary relationships: they also carry information on ecological and evolutionary processes, and can be a powerful tool for analyzing comparative data.
