What we work on:

Our research is focused on understanding the causes and consequences of changes in species diversity to metacommunity structure and ecosystem functioning. We usually work on freshwater organisms using a combination of approaches, including field work, computer simulation, statistical modelling, and lab experiments. The main focus of the lab is to promote synthesis across levels of biological organization to understand species coexistence.
We're committed to excellence and favor quality over quantity in our projects.

"Theory without Fact is phantasy; but Fact without Theory is chaos. Divorced, both are useless; united, they are equally essential and fruitful."
