We are a group of biologists with diverse backgrounds that spawn from genes to ecosystems. Our common interest is to understand the role of biodiversity in population dynamics and food web interactions.
We are particularly interested in how species interactions and environmental drivers regulate food web dynamics and how food webs are changing. We address questions mainly in aquatic systems with a special emphasis on planktonic organisms. Our research is organized around the following themes:
- Food web dynamics and species interactions
- Ecosystem responses to environmental change
- Behavioral and life-history adaptation to environmental variation
We use a multi-disciplinary approach, combining descriptive field studies, experimental research (field and laboratory), historical data with statistical modelling and genetics.
The purpose of this blog is to keep all of us in the lab connected and a place for interested parties to keep up with our activities.
