研究领域

We link genetics, behaviour and life history to the distribution and abundance of organisms and the structure and dynamics of communities. We do so combining empirical and theoretical tools with a range of aquatic and terrestrial organisms, in the lab and in the field. Our research centres around two study systems: Predator - prey dynamics & food webs (Daphnia and Theory) and Parrot Conservation and Behaviour in Bonaire.
