Areas of interest
I am broadly interested in understanding and predicting the current loss of biodiversity.
My work aims to:
- Identify species' life-history, ecological and behavioural traits that can be used as predictors of extinction risk and invasion success.
- Explore the role that distinct anthropogenic impacts (in interaction with species' traits) play in current biodiversity loss.
- Understand the importance of individual variation for population dynamics.
