Postdoctoral Researcher, Evolutionary Biology, University of Manchester I have a PhD in Behavioural Ecology from The University of Manchester, specialising in examining how anthropogenic disturbance and ecological complexity affect the behaviour, spatial ecology, and population dynamics across a range of species and environments. I have conducted non-invasive laboratory experiments on Testudines, and I am an experienced field researcher, having completed a funded field season in the Arctic researching the effect of changing snow patterns on the spatial behaviour and energetics of a highly specialised and threatened Arctic bird. I have also conducted four months of fieldwork in the tropical rainforests of Costa Rica, examining the behavioural ecology and energetics relative to ecological complexity and environmental disturbances of two sloth species. Finally, I received Turing funding to conduct a placement at the University of Sao Paulo investigating the impacts of anthropogenic disturbance and habitat fragmentation on threatened mammal communities of the Atlantic Forest.
