My research is mainly centered around physiological ecologyÉ«ÊÓƵÏÂÔØ”exploring connections between physiology and ecological processes. My research aims to understand individual and population level adaptations and responses to environmental change, from interdisciplinary and integrative perspectives and by applying a variety of experimental and observational research methods. I mostly, but not exclusively, work with marine birds. I am interested in applied ecology and seeking to address conservation and management objectives for marine species. I am also interested in the interface of environmental, animal, and human health, and One Health approaches to solving challenges.
