Quantitative Ecology Lab
Our overall goal is to study the processes governing the evolution and maintenance of individual variability within populations. We focus our research on demography and life history theory to address questions regarding population dynamics. We use structured population models and use advanced theoretical biology to enhance theories in Ecology and Evolutionary Demography.
Affiliations
We are a CSULB research lab holding partnerships with several research and educational groups. We collaborate with the Caribbean Primate Research Center (CPRC) at the University of Puerto Rico and with the Salamander Population and Adaptation Research Collaboration Network (SPARCNet). We also promote diversity in STEM through our partnership with the CSULB student club Researcher For Diverse Scientists (RDS).
Our research has been supported by the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, and the Animal Models for the Social Dimensions of Health and Aging Research Network.
