Ben Kerr combines theoretical and experimental studies on population dynamics in organisms as diverse as bacteria and trees. | |
 |
Janneke Hille Ris Lambers is a terrestrial plant ecologist who uses experimental and statistical approaches to study species diversity and the effects of global environmental change on plant communities. | |
 |
Jennifer Nemhauser uses bioinformatics and molecular approaches to study plant development and signaling pathways in Arabadopsis. | |

Together this dog and his trainer, Heath Smith, search for sign from grizzlies in Alberta, Canada. They are part of a novel and non-invasive animal tracking program started at the Center for Conservation Biology. This program is one of several at the department that conducts research to help save the lives of endangered species.
