Biodiversity, Ecology and Evolutionary Processes

biodiversity banner

The biological systems that are the life of the planet face unprecedented challenges from global environmental and societal change. Environmental scientists, working to detect, diagnose and understand the complex processes at work, will help to find the solutions to these challenges,

Researchers across the Biodiversity, Ecology and Evolutionary Processes stream are carrying out world-leading research into biological processes, systems and their interactions, at scales ranging from the organism to the population, and in spheres ranging from human health to natural ecosystems, over all timescales.  Use the key words below to help you find DTP supervisors and their current ideas for studentship projects.
