Biography
"Emilio Civantos is currently a post-doctoral researcher at the PRECOL group in CIBIO-InBIO. His research interests cover a broad range of topics including evolutionary ecology, population biology, macroecology and conservation biology. His research aims to understand how biodiversity dynamics arise from ecological and evolutionary processes. His studies also focus on the assessment of global change effects on ecosystems, populations, species and communities. Much of his work is motivated by the need to quantify and forecast ecological and evolutionary dynamics under environmental change."
