Our research unravels the complex interactions between biological organisms and their environments, exploring how living systems function, evolve, and adapt in a changing world.
From genes to biosphere, our research tackles the forces shaping life on Earth
We investigate how living systems respond to environmental shifts and human impact, uncovering sustainable interventions for planetary sustainability. We develop and apply cutting-edge quantitative tools, leveraging data-driven approaches, engineering, and computational methods to deepen our understanding of the fundamental principles that govern life and apply them to pressing environmental challenges.
Our work explores the intricate relationships between environmental conditions, human activity, and different levels of living matter organization—spanning genes, individuals, populations, communities, and entire ecosystems. Through a synthesis of field and lab experiments, remote sensing, and mathematical modeling, we seek to uncover the mechanisms that sustain life and inform sustainable solutions in a rapidly changing environment.
Key areas include:
Understanding how environmental and anthropogenic factors influence the development and diversity of life on Earth. ”
