I am currently a researcher at the Quantitative Biodiversity Dynamics Group (QBD) of Utrecht University.
With my research, I address challenges in eco-evolutionary dynamics between environmental changes and spatio-temporal patterns in ecosystems. I am particularly interested in how plants and animals move and why they use certain movement strategies. At QBD, I use individual-based simulations to bridge the gap between the use of maximum entropy theory in ecology and finding potential solutions to decrease further biodiversity decline.
I'm also leading a public engagement project, called 'Aanwaaiers'. For more information, see www.uu.nl/aanwaaiers.
