The School of Biological Sciences Spring 2023 Seminar Series presents Dr. Tyler Kartzinel

Tyler Kartzinel, PhD

 Research in the lab of Dr. Tyler Kartzinel focuses on conservation biology and molecular ecology. As community ecologists, we aim to understand the rules that determine where species live, who they interact with, and how they respond to perturbations. This seminar on "The feeding ecology of large mammals" will demonstrate how we adopt integrative approaches that span scales from whole-ecosystem field experiments through DNA-based laboratory analyses to illuminate crucial processes in evolutionary ecology that are rare or otherwise difficult to observe. It will focus on communities of large mammalian herbivores, emphasizing how we collaborate with communities and organizations around the world to amplify the value of our research and confront real-world conservation challenges.
