We are interested in clarifying the mechanisms of the conflicts between human and nature - the issues often appear as Biodiversity conservation, Human health, and Food security. We approach these issues through big (spatial) data, Geographical Information Systems (GIS), computer modeling and quantitative analyses, with the strong emphasis on biological evidence and social-ecological analyses through field data collection.
Our projects are diverse, including: migratory flyways in Africa, Land use change in arid regions, Zoonotic disease infections and animal distributions, Invasion of agricultural pest modeling under climate change.
