PhD project
Making scientific knowledge applicable and understandable for society is one important prerequisite for a successful transition to a sustainable future. I see my future within the field of interdisciplinary communication and involvement of scientists, decision makers and stakeholders for an effective and structured, transparent process in decision making and conservation.
My research interests include a holistic approach in community ecology in combination with habitat restoration regarding land use and management strategies; the synthesis of theoretical and applied science, and the use of novel technologies like spatial analysis tools (e.g. GIS) and statistical modelling for conservation and science communication.
My previous projects involved mammal predator-prey interactions in regard of current and future management strategies, as well as restoration management of plant communities and seed banks in relation to land use and ungulate grazing regimes.
