STRI postdoctoral FELLOW
As a conservation paleobiologist, my research focuses on understanding metacommunity dynamics and the factors influencing biodiversity across different spatial and temporal scales. I am particularly intrigued by how these patterns vary with scale, with a primary emphasis on reef ecosystems and the complex roles of corals and sponges. At the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute (STRI), I am committed to revitalizing aspects of the Paleontological Database Project (PPP), leveraging this robust resource to explore community-level dynamics, such as the processes of community reassembly following disturbances caused by the emergence of the Isthmus of Panama.
