Ecophysiology
Understanding how organisms function within their environmental and ecological contexts.
Our research blends experimental physiology with simulation-based models to identify the physiological and ecological mechanisms that determine species’ distributions, extinction risk, and evolutionary responses to environmental change. By integrating across disciplines, we provide a comprehensive understanding of organisms, from genes to geographic ranges, while improving our capacity to predict the impact of climate change.
