INGTY LAB

Our lab is broadly interested in exploring the fragile links between biodiversity and society. We conduct research in two biodiversity-rich regions of the world - The US Southeast and the Himalayan biodiversity hotspot. While distinctly dissimilar, both regions share numerous challenges that have the same conceptual underpinnings. Some of these challenges that our lab focuses on include biodiversity loss driven by land use land cover change, natural resource management, and the cascading impacts of climate change to name a few.
