Jean Philippe Gibert (he/him/his)
Uses math, microcosm experiments and any data he can get ahold of to understand predator-prey interactions –from individuals to ecosystems– in a changing world. CV Contact: jean.gibert at duke.edu |

Postdocs
|
Dan Wieczynski
Studies patterns in the structure and dynamics of communities that emerge from individual organisms interacting with the environment through functional traits. Contact: daniel.wieczynski at duke.edu More about Dan's science here. |
Lab Undergrads
|
Megan Liu Interested in how genetic variation influences temperature performance curves |
Postdoc alumni
|
Jennifer (Jenny) Rocca Microbial ecologist (wrangler) extraordinaire studying biotic and abiotic impacts on microbial communities. Currently at DARPA |
Undergrad alumni
|
Billy Cao Interested in changes in bird assemblages over time |
|
Alexandra (Alex) Singleton Studies how genetic variation mediates temperature responses in protists |
|
Adrian Doan Loves staring at and tending to microorganisms, because of the broader implications changes in their feeding interactions within food webs could have for the world. |
|
Cody Perry Studies how increased temperatures affect food webs to better understand the full range of effects that human-caused climate change has on the biosphere. |
|
Deney Li Studies how drug pollution may impact the structure and dynamics of freshwater communities. |
|
Pranav Singla High School student doing work on how temperature affects demographic parameters and intraspecific competition. (Accepted at NC State for his undergrad! Congrats Pranav!) |
